Q: I have an owner on a listing that wants someone present for every listing. They are comfortable with their property manager or best friend being there and opening the property if I cannot. Would this be allowable if they are not licensed REALTORS®?
A: That is allowable if the sellers wish to have someone present at the home for every showing, regardless of their status as a REALTOR®. However, as part of your MLS rules, you may not be able to share lock box codes with these persons. The seller would need to arrange for their entry.
