Guardian of Ethics: Celebrating Jason Farulla’s Leadership Appointment in Sussex County

Coldwell Banker Premier proudly announces Jason Farulla’s appointment to the 2026 SCAOR Professional Standards Committee and his selection to the Delaware Association of REALTORS® Leadership Academy. His commitment to ethics and leadership sets a benchmark in real estate professionalism.

At Coldwell Banker Premier, integrity isn’t just a value—it’s our foundation. We are proud to share that Jason Farulla, a seasoned real estate professional from our Lewes, Delaware office, has been selected by the Sussex County Association of REALTORS® (SCAOR) Board of Directors to serve on the 2026 SCAOR Professional Standards Committee—a role he has now held for four years. This appointment highlights Jason’s commitment to ethical excellence, industry leadership, and service to both clients and colleagues.

What This Leadership Role Means

The Professional Standards Committee plays a critical role in upholding the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) Code of Ethics—a standard of conduct that has guided the real estate profession for more than a century. First adopted in 1913, NAR’s Code of Ethics is one of the earliest formal business ethical codes in the U.S. and remains central to REALTOR® professionalism.

Local committees like the one Jason serves on are responsible for interpreting and enforcing this code, ensuring fairness, integrity, and respectful dispute resolution through arbitration and mediation at the regional level.

Why Ethics Matters in Real Estate

Ethics isn’t just a concept—it’s the backbone of trust in real estate transactions. The Code of Ethics sets standards that go beyond legal requirements, emphasizing honesty, fairness, and cooperation among REALTORS®.

• Putting clients’ interests first in every transaction
• Transparent and truthful representation of property facts
• Cooperation with other real estate professionals to benefit client outcomes

Clients benefit from working with REALTORS® who voluntarily adhere to these higher standards—setting them apart from non‑member licensees and fostering trust across the board. Learn more about why this matters on the NAR Ethics & Standards page.

Leadership Through Continued Growth

In addition to his standards committee role, Jason was selected for the Delaware Association of REALTORS® Leadership Academy Class of 2026—an honor awarded to just six agents out of more than 4,400 REALTORS® in the state. This prestigious program focuses on advanced leadership training, professional development, and collaborative skill-building designed to strengthen the real estate community statewide.

Through this year‑long experience, Jason will deepen his expertise, preparing him to better serve clients, mentor colleagues, and drive positive change in our industry.

Colleagues Celebrate Jason’s Impact

Julie Gritton, Jason’s Team Leader at Coldwell Banker Premier, shared,

“His passion and commitment to the industry inspire our entire team and play a key role in mentoring and developing outstanding agents.”

Steve DuBrueler, Founder and CEO of Coldwell Banker Premier, added,

“Jason has truly earned the trust and respect of everyone who knows him. Our core value is simple: just do the right thing—Jason embodies that every day.”

A Stronger Real Estate Community Starts with Ethics

At Coldwell Banker Premier, we believe ethical conduct and professional growth go hand‑in‑hand with exceptional client service. Jason’s appointment and Leadership Academy acceptance represent not only his personal accomplishments but also our company’s enduring commitment to excellence in every aspect of real estate.
