The following are general rules and guidelines for the placement of yard signs and directional signs for open houses in communities serviced by the Pasadena-Foothills REALTORS®.
Yard Signs: In those cities with sign ordinances, real estate signs (including for sale, for lease, for rent) are usually classified as temporary signage. They are often limited to one (1) or two (2) signs per street frontage and usually are limited in size, either by square footage of the face of the sign or by the dimensions. In some cases placement on the property is specified as to the distance from the property line or from the structure.
Open House (Directional) Signs: Details vary from community to community but most of the guidelines are similar. Those cities with specific ordinances are strictly enforced and many assess penalties for violations.
City (Public) Property: Most municipalities will not allow open house signs to be placed on city property, which includes street corners and medians without a city permit. City jurisdiction often includes the grass strip between the sidewalk and the curb/street. This also applies to telephone poles, street signs, trees or equipment boxes on public property. Many cities also prohibit the use of fabric and plastic banners or paper signs. Attention attracting items such as streamers, balloons, banners, pennants or flags are not permitted. If an open house sign has already been set-up at an intersection and points in the direction of your open house do not set-up any more signs at that intersection.
Private Property: Always obtain prior permission from the owner of a property before placing an open house sign on someone’s property.
