It happens from time to time. Of course, there's no need for the sign but the agent puts it out front for lead capture purposes and also so that people see his name out there.
I will say though that there is one agent in town who usually has listings that are not on MLS. My understanding is that she puts her sign out front, does some minimal advertising, and if it sells during the non-MLS period then she charges the seller a lower commission rate. Of course, the assumption is that she'll be a dual agent in this situation since most agents around here tend to only search on MLS.
