Guest[quote=Wickedheart][quote=pabloesqobar]Easiest method is to become friends with a local realtor who will give you the number to the lockbox. You can preview the home at your leisure. I’ve even run across the same combo at different properties.[/quote]
That’s really appalling, not to mention unethical. Realtors like your friend are the reason I refused to allow a lockbox on the rental I was living in.
[/quote]Wow. Appalling and unethical. Whatever.

It is against MLS rules.
From the Sandicor agent homepage last month:
“Lockbox combinations are considered confidential information and should only be conveyed to other MLS participants and subscribers. Any member found in violation of giving a client a one day show code or combination for a combo box is in jeopardy of losing their keycard and MLS privileges. Sellers and listing agents are encouraged to contact the authorities should a member of the public be found entering the property without the accompaniment of an MLS participant as it is considered trespassing.”
I’ll laugh when somebody’s dog bites you.
