In that case the realtor would have violated fiduciary responsibility, and if caught... could have gone to prison for theft by fraud against the bank.
In this case - though I am hearing it third party - the trustees were approached with an offer just over assessment; but did their fiduciary responsibility by placing it on the market.
The party that originally posted upped their bid, and supposedly some other bids were tended. Which is prudent to have back up in a world were financing is not always assured.
