  • Services

The REALTOR® Ombudsman Program is a free service to Washington REALTOR® members. We have a group of trained real estate professionals who are skilled at mediation and compromise. This program can often prevent the potentially more imposing process of Grievance and Professional Standards Hearings (and even lawsuits). The REALTOR® Ombudsman Program has been a success throughout the country and it is available now in your area. The program gives both the complainant and the respondent the opportunity to work out a resolution without the formal hearing process. Services cover disputes between two brokers, disputes between a broker and a client, disputes involving affiliates such as inspectors, finance or escrow. Email Laura Murray at laura.murray@warealtor.org for more information.

  • Training

If you have a passion for resolving conflict and you'd like to become a trained Ombudsman, email Laura Murray to sign up. 

TRAINING EVENT: Join fellow Washington REALTORS® for a special Ombudsman Training event at the 2018 Fall Business Conference in Spokane. The training will take place on Thursday, September 27th from 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM. Email Laura Murray to RSVP for the training.
