Selling real estate
A real estate agent forms an LLC. While previewing the new listings on the market the agent sees a bank-owned listing priced to sell quickly. The agent writes an offer on the property in the name of the LLC. The bank addendum prohibits agents from purchasing bank-owned assets. The agent's LLC buys the property. Is going about it this way ethical or unethical?

Oh shoot, I'm sorry @Michiel Hart. So much going on today with questionable RE professional activities. Thanks for the clarification and best wishes!
