| The Ethics of Real Estate
Agents: A Comparison of Realtor and Public Perceptions Author: Start Page: 41 Abstract:
This paper reports the results of nationwide opinion surveys of the public
and Realtors concerning real estate agent ethics. Among other things, the
data indicates no significant difference between the two group’s ratings of
agent ethics. The public rating of agent ethics in this survey is higher
than last reported by Gallup. Also reported are respondent characteristics
that are significantly related to the opinions of both survey groups. For
example, people who have used an agent hold a significantly higher opinion
of agent ethics compared to those who have not, and they rate the agent they
dealt with higher than agents in general.
