What are the MLS rules on for sale signs?

05.25.2017 by //

The rules governing the use of for-sale signs are fairly straightforward.  You may not plant a sign that says For Sale By Owner, FSBO or By Owner.  Technically once a home is activated on MLS your home is no longer classified as a For Sale By Owner.  Your listing is marketed under our real estate brokerage name.  Furthermore, if a consumer viewed your home via MLS or partner site, then drove by your property to check out the exterior and neighborhood, a For Sale By Owner sign would most likely confuse them.  Likewise, if an agent scheduled a showing and saw a For Sale By Owner sign when pulling up to your property it could throw them off.  Since perception is extremely important when marketing real estate we have customizable signage for sale.  All signs are high-quality double-sided corrugated plastic. Just add your phone number and plant it curbside.  Each sign comes with a galvanized steel ‘H’ lawn stake, 3″ numeric stencils, and a jumbo blue marker.
