Professional Standards

The single, most outstanding characteristic that sets REALTORS® apart from other real estate practitioners is their adherence to the Code of Ethics established by the National Association of REALTORS®. 

As a member benefit, OCAR offers its members and their clients a vehicle to process ethics complaints and arbitration requests.

If a monetary dispute arises from a real estate transaction or if you believe a REALTOR® may have acted in an unethical manner, you may seek resolution through OCAR’s Professional Standards Department.
