If I could reinstall it, I would do it.  If not, I would call the agent and advise them.  We owe each other the respect; regardless of one would do the same for us.

I'll be nice and put it back up if I can. If it's not a sign I can "handle," I'll call the agent and let them know.

As long as it is not broken it would be put back up.

If broken or missing always make a call; karma can be a bad thing!

Good morning Debbie. I would, if it is the type of sign that is easily set in place, but no matter would notify the listing agent.

honestly it depends.  How big is it, how heavy is it, where did it fall.  If it's pretty simple I put it back up.  If it's huge or in the giant ravine next to the driveway I call the listing agent.

Most of ours fall because the ground is too hard. I can't get my own signs in the ground so usually can't get theirs in the ground. I would call or text the agent.

If it were convenient, I might try to correct the sign. If not, I would email the agent.

In our area, most of the agents use post signs and the wind can sometimes disconnect the signs.

Of course!  Putting it back up would be the right thing to do as long as it didn't take any special tools or major work.
