The National Association of Realtors (NAR) is facing legal pushback for allegedly censoring conservative Christian real estate agents for their personal beliefs.
Critics are slamming NAR’s ethics code, specifically Article 10-5, for serving as a “weaponization tool” that’s been used to further conservative Christian “persecution.” Several of these realtors claiming their rights and businesses have been targeted are now pursuing legal action against the NAR or other parties involved.
Virginia realtor and broker Wilson Fauber, Arizona realtor Chad DeVries and Georgia realtor Julie Mauck, all self-professing conservative Christians, have filed lawsuits or have said they intend to file against the NAR, their local realtor associations or individuals who brought ethics complaints against them under the NAR’s Article 10-5.
Fauber has discussed taking legal action against the NAR and the Virginia Association of Realtors (VAR) after they both ruled that he was guilty of “hate speech” for posting a Bible verse with commentary ten years ago on his personal Facebook page.
