Read this brochure before your file an Ethics or Arbitration Complaint


Code of Ethics Complaints

Utilize the CAR Ombudsman Program

We have several REALTOR members trained in mediation and conflict resolution that can help act as an unbiased 3rd party intermediary between you and a REALTOR.  This process usually takes less than 72-hours to complete.  At the end, if you are still not satisfied, a full Ethics complaint process is your next option.

To request Ombudsman services, please call the Executive Officer, Deb Haines-Kulick at the CAR office at  (931)552-3567.
