NRMLA Code of Ethics & Professional Responsibility


As more lenders expand into the reverse mortgage business and more products are introduced, NRMLA’s Standards and Ethics Committee published the Code of Ethics & Professional Responsibility to help strengthen the ethical framework that every member must follow.

All members must sign a copy of the Code of Ethics & Professional Responsibility when joining or renewing membership.

In addition, the Standards and Ethics Committee has published advisory opinions to help clarify certain parts of the Code of Ethics.
