To help empower members to act consistent with the settlement, NAR has developed two new resources that provide clarity on what is—and is not—permissible under the proposed settlement. These resources help to define the responsibilities and limitations for real estate agents by outlining the “dos” and “don’ts” of supporting homebuyers and home sellers during the transaction process.

• Dos and Don'ts When Working with Buyers
• Dos and Don'ts When Working with Sellers

Remember that the practice changes are intended to promote choice, empower consumers, and foster healthy competition, and they should be implemented with these goals in mind. As always, the REALTORÒ Code of Ethics remains the foundation for the services REALTORSÒ provide.
