Ethics Question
Would it be considered unethical to advertise a property for sale that I have under contract but have not actually closed on yet.
And if someone actually calls about it what should I tell them.

Edward Powell, great questions & post, Ed. I've learned quite a bit about being ethical, especially in advertisement. I just want to be truthful, cover my bases, and not have it come back to haunt me. So thanks for the advice from Bill, Joel and all who replied.
Ed, contact me, I'd like to ask you some questions and network.
