Not following showing instructions could be a violation of the code of ethics. When a property is shown by “appointment,” always make an appointment. Public trust, your safety, and the safety of your clients must be your priority. If you see a lockbox, you may not use it without permission if an appointment is required - even if you have been there in the past and know it isn’t occupied. Catching a homeowner off guard can get you shot! Also, there may be an alarm code that is needed. Some sellers expect notice of a showing even on vacant properties. Remember that you can use a CBS (Call Before Showing) code on your lockboxes when placing them on occupied listings. -Lesha Freeland, Keller Williams 4550100
