Buddy, I wish that was illegal, but, then I wouldn't know any highly motivated realtors...seriously, I get calls like yours 2-10X a week, from the biggest firms in the industry...if it was illegal or they could be sued, I doubt any billion dollar companies would be exposing themselves to such liability...but, im not a lawyer, so you should probably spend a few hundred dollars consulting with one just to make sure, after all you don't want the super secret realtor swat team to come get you, right?
