DescriptionLocationCancellation Policy Please note that this course is in-person participation only. This comprehensive course explores the complex relationship between the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) Code of Ethics and Virginia's license law framework. It emphasizes that provisions in the NAR's Code of Ethics that do not align with Virginia's regulations do not apply to Real Estate Board licensees in the state. The course categorizes these relevant articles into three distinct sections, providing a systematic and accessible approach to understanding ethical practices: Duties to Clients and Customers: This section elucidates the ethical obligations real estate professionals owe to their clients and customers, shedding light on nuances of client-agent relationships. Duties to the Public: Here, the course explores the ethical responsibilities real estate practitioners bear toward the broader public, underscoring the importance of transparency and fair dealings in all transactions. Duties to Fellow REALTORS®: This section examines the ethical obligations real estate professionals have towards their peers within the industry, emphasizing the principles of professionalism, cooperation, and respect. The course highlights key provisions in Virginia's standards, including disclosures, competency, advertising, and dispute resolution. Additionally, it differentiates the burden of proof in ethics hearings ("clear, strong, and convincing") from arbitration ("preponderance of the evidence"). In sum, this course equips real estate professionals with a comprehensive understanding of the intricate interplay between NAR's Code of Ethics and Virginia's license law.
