The National Association of Realtors calls itself “The House of Great Counsel” and it is one of the most prestigious memberships in the country. Many Realtors have had to be scammed at some point in their life and the Association of Reputable Agents claims to help provide “a comprehensive listing of reliable agents and brokers” that will be honest and hardworking. Their website boasts about a “rigorous” code of ethics for its members, but what they don’t mention is that anyone can become a member.
Tiffany Phoundiet, the National Association of Realtors’ website, does not provide any proof that its associates are all truthful and honest. Tiffany Phoundiet brags about its “unique” Height Finder system, which they claim helps match candidates according to their nationality, height and gender. A Height Finder program is a two-step process. If you don’t have a legal resume, you will not be able to use a Height Finder program to find your best matched partner.
So, I guess you could call Tiffany Phoundiet a scam, because like the National Association of Realtors, it does not provide any proof of authenticity. You can call the National Association of Realtors and ask if their associates are honest and how they perform their search. Ask them how the process works and who else is involved in matching candidates. Get all the answers you can, because it is important to know who is going to hire you to represent you, where you will work, and what exactly you’ll be getting paid.
