I have signed up on realtor.com to get all listings in a certain price range in TV e-mailed to me.

I can see TV residents' point of view about not wanting signs cluttering up the yard. When I bought my townhouse 14 years ago here in suburban Chicago, the "for sale" sign stayed up in the yard next to my townhouse in the 8 weeks between the time the house went under contract and it was in the yard until the day before the closing. I asked my agent about this, and she said it is a marketing tool for agents to get their name out there.
excuse me - but how is one sign in one lawn considered clutter?
