When a complaint is filed against a real-estate sales professional that falls within our authority, and we can find enough evidence to proceed, there are a few different possibilities. In this example, the sales professional could agree to cover the costs of the key and changing the locks. Other minor issues. For relatively minor issues that can’t be resolved between the parties, RECO can issue a warning, and also may require the individual to take an education course related to the error. That’s a serious violation of the Code of Ethics, so RECO would seek a fine in front of a discipline panel.
