T F 3. Under the NATIONAL
ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS ®
model board bylaws dues
formula, a REALTOR must
®
pay the dues of any of his
salespeople who do not choose
to join the association.

T F 4. REALTOR X, President of
®
the local association of
REALTORS , maintained a
®
“private” file in her office
where she kept diaries and
notes of meetings and
discussions she had as an
association President. Since
REALTOR X kept this file for
®
her own personal use, contents
of the file cannot be used as
evidence against the
association.

T F 5. A local association of
REALTORS received a written
®
opinion from its counsel that
the advertising guidelines the
association imposed on its
members probably violated the
antitrust laws. The association
executive reprinted that
opinion in the association
newsletter. Since the
association’s counsel wrote the
opinion, it will be subject to
the attorney-client privilege of
confidentiality if the
association is later sued.
