I am not working in MD, so therefore I am not 100 % sure about what is legally correct in your state....
It should be similar everywhere though.
In my state, if you are selling by owner, without Real Estate agency involved, you hold your own open houses
no problem....
If on the other hand you are using a listing agent/Real Estate Brokerage company who listed your property,
(and this is in my area.... ) during a Sunday open house to the public a licensed Real Estate agent has to be at the open house, as the visiting public may want to write an offer, ask pertaining questions etc., in that case it is usually the listing agent, or an agent from the very same listing office!
If on the other hand it is an open house for touring brokers/Real Estate Agents to preview the listing by themselves, anyone can hold that open house, but it is then closed to the public, open only to licensed Agents....
If you have a listing agent that listing agent should know the rules of their Real Estate Board/Law
If you are selling For Sale By Owner, you are good to go!
Good Luck to you, I hope this helps, but again I am not from MD.......
Just thought I share these details from my state with you.
