REALTOR Application
I hereby apply for Membership in the Piedmont Regional Association of REALTORS®, Inc. I will attend orientation within 2 cycles of applying for membership. Membership is final only upon approval by the Board of directors and may be revoked should completion of requirements, such as orientation, not be completed within timeframe established in the association’s bylaws. Upon approval of my membership application, I agree to abide by the Code of Ethics of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®, which includes the duty to arbitrate (or to mediate if required by the association) and the Constitution, Bylaws and Rules and Regulations of the above named Association, the State Association and the National Association, and if required, I further agree to satisfactorily complete a reasonable and non-discriminatory written examination on such Code, Constitutions, Bylaws and Rules and Regulations. I understand membership brings certain privileges and obligations that require compliance. I understand that I will be required to complete periodic Code of Ethics training as specified in the association’s bylaws as a continued condition of membership. In the event membership is denied, dues shall be refundable less prorated amount to cover number of days applicant received Association services.

If applicant resigns or otherwise causes membership to terminate, the duty to submit to arbitration continues in effect even after membership lapses or is terminated, provided the dispute arose while applicant was a REALTOR®.
