About this listen

Real estate agents are fiduciaries, bound by a strict code of ethics to protect the best interests of their clients. While some ethical questions are black and white, agents often face complex situations with competing duties and gray areas that require careful judgment. This episode tackles the tough ethical dilemmas that agents encounter in their day-to-day business.

We explore a series of real-world scenarios, such as how to handle multiple offers when you are representing both the buyer and the seller, the proper way to disclose property defects, and the fine line between aggressive marketing and misrepresentation. Our guest, a member of a professional standards committee, will walk us through the National Association of Realtors® Code of Ethics and provide a framework for making the right decision when faced with a difficult choice. This is a practical application of the industry's guiding principles.

This episode is a critical listen for agents at every stage of their career. It serves as a powerful reminder of the professional and moral obligations that come with the license. Learn how to navigate the complexities of the business with integrity and ensure you are always acting in your client's best interest.
