Is it legal to advertise other realtors listings?
I have other realtors in my office I can advertise for them, but being a realtor and the listings are the other realtor’s listings, I am not sure I can advertise the listings legally.
I’m not sure about the legality question, but it is against the Realtor Code of Ethics to advertise another agent’s listing without their permission.
Most agents I know will gladly give you permission to advertise it in place where they aren’t already advertising it. It’s just more exposure.

Yes but you need the permission of the listing agent/broker.

?? Since THEY are the ones who will get the commission, I can’t see them objecting to you spending money to sell the properties.
You can sell any realtor’s property as the buyers agent, so I’m not sure what the issue is. Frankly, it would be dumb for you to do that, that’s the selling agent’s responsibility, but as I say, I sure wouldn’t object if it were my listing.
