Professional Standards Committee

The Professional Standards Committee is made up of REALTOR® members who have special training (provided by Tri-Counties) in ethics and arbitration disputes. These are unpaid volunteers giving up their time as an act of public service. Their objective is to be fair, unbiased and impartial; to determine, based on evidence presented to them, what actually occurred; and then to determine whether the facts as they find them support a finding that the Article(s) charged have been violated or rule on an arbitration award. The panel is made of one chairman, two panelists and an alternate. Each panelists is asked to serve on about 2-3 hearings per year.

Grievance Committee

Tri-Counties has about 8 members on the Grievance Committee who meet as needed to review any disciplinary complaints received. Their role is to review any complaints alleging a violation of a membership or MLS duty to determine whether or not the complaint should be forwarded to Professional Standards for a hearing. It does not, however, determine a member's guilt or innocence or mediate between the parties. Its primary function is to determine whether or not a disciplinary complaint is appropriate for a hearing. Grievance Committee members must be Tri-Counties members in good standing. Members of the Grievance Committee are required to serve 3 years before moving to the Professional Standards Committee.
