MEMBER DISCIPLINE
If a REBNY member finds that another REBNY member is violating the Code of Ethics and Professional Practices, she may file a complaint that will be reviewed the Committee of Ethics and Professional Practices or a sub-committee thereof. In instances where provisions of the UCBA are violated involving RLS Compliance, complaints will be referred to the RLS Compliance Panel and may be further referred to a panel of members from the Residential Board of Directors and select Broker As.

Violations of RLS and Listings Data Compliance Policy
Failure to submit Listing Information accurately, currently, and timely, as required by the RLS will invoke a violation. The RLS is only as good as its data, so it is important that members are doing their part to implement accurate and quality data into the RLS. Please visit the “RLS Listing Data Compliance Policy” in Exhibit C of the UCBA to get a full overview on how to correctly enter a Listing. Members should correct the violation within 3 business days of notice.
