Ethics Complaints & Dispute Resolution

PMAR Dispute Resolution

PMAR provides information and resources for the public and Realtors® regarding ethics concerns, real estate-related issues, and related procedures.

Understanding Your Options

Depending on the nature of the issue, parties may seek information regarding options referenced in the Dispute Resolution section of the Real Estate Sale Agreement, ethics complaint procedures, informal assistance through the Ombudsman Program, or Realtor® mediation and arbitration procedures related to commission disputes under Article 17 of the Realtor® Code of Ethics.
 
Certain processes are administered directly through PMAR, while others may involve outside organizations, legal counsel, Small Claims Court, or other providers.
