So if your client's interest is selling their property quickly and you can satisfy that interest with a cash buyer, regardless of the price, I don't see how that could be looked at as unethical.On the other side of the coin, if your clients interest is to get the most money from the of their property as they can (as a licensed RE agent with your clients interest before your own) most likely it would be listed on the MLS.I am curious to here what others here have to say!!
