One might suggest: if there is
a FSBO sign on the lawn or in a newspaper ad, if you intend to solicit that owner, say NOTHING except — is your house for sale on MLS?
In your scenario, nothing stops the private seller from approaching a brokerage that offers mere postings and requesting the comparatives then sticking
a fsbo sign on his lawn thereby duly sticking it to the brokerage as well.
