Fair Housing

 
Professionalism

The REALTORS’® Fair Housing Action Plan, emphasizes Accountability, Culture Change, and Training, to advance fair housing in the industry. We raise awareness, deepen understanding, and hold ourselves accountable. We promote public policy to advance broader homeownership availability, accessibility, and affordability in all communities. We prioritize efforts to narrow homeownership gaps among demographic groups and promote strong enforcement of anti-discrimination laws in the housing market.

Also, over the past decade and in recent years the professionalism issues have been discussed by numerous study and advisory groups to explore a wide range of topics related to broker supervision and accountability, pre- and post-licensing education requirements, quality of education, regulatory enforcement and numerous other issues.

But the ever-changing landscape of the industry and changes to the way Virginian’s are entering the workforce require continued efforts to ensure REALTORS® are well regulated, educated and supervised.
