* I hereby apply for membership in the REALTOR® Association of Sarasota and Manatee as a REALTOR® Member. I agree that, if accepted for membership, I will pay the dues and fees as from time to time established. I agree as a condition of membership to thoroughly familiarize myself with the Code of Ethics of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (NAR), including the duty to arbitrate business disputes in accordance with the Code of Ethics and
Arbitration Manual of NAR and the Constitution, Bylaws, and Rules and Regulations of RASM, the Florida REALTORS® (FR), and NAR. I further agree that my act of paying dues and fees shall evidence my initial and continuing commitment to abide by the Code of Ethics, Constitution, Bylaws, Rules and Regulations, and duty to arbitrate, all as from time to time amended.
* I acknowledge that RASM will maintain a membership file of information which may be shared with other boards/associations where I subsequently seek membership. This file shall include previous applications for memberships: all final findings of Code of Ethics violations and violations of other membership duties within the past three years: pending complaints alleging violations of the Code of Ethics or alleging violations of other membership duties: incomplete or pending disciplinary measures; pending arbitration requests; and information related to unpaid arbitration awards or unpaid financial obligations to RASM or its MLS.
* I acknowledge that if I subsequently resign from the Association or otherwise cause my membership to terminate with an ethics complaint pending, the Association may condition renewal of membership upon my certification that I will submit to the pending ethics proceeding and will abide by the decision of the Hearing Panel. If I resign or otherwise cause membership to terminate, the duty to submit arbitration continues in effect even after membership lapses or is terminated, provided the dispute arose while I was a REALTOR®.
* By signing below, I consent that the REALTOR® Association of Sarasota and Manatee (local, state, national) and their subsidiaries, if any (e.g., Stellar MLS) may contact me at the specified address, telephone numbers, fax numbers, email address or other means of communication available. This consent applies to changes in contact information that may be provided by me to the Association(s) in the future. This consent recognizes that certain
state and federal laws may place limits on communications that I am waiving to receive all communications as part of my membership. I agree to hold harmless the Association of Realtors®, its staff and agents, for use of my email address(es) and phone number(s).
