The property has turned over a few times and a key lockbox for realitors remains outside our complex. I think it has a set of keys for my condo unit in it however it is not the lockbox used to list when I bought the property. I'm not sure of the Realitor used to list with this lockbox.

The lock box is not on my door it is on a rail outside. The box is not definitely for my condo. The association doesn't handel these things.And there is no maintenece man (small set of condos).

Change out the door knob and lock set. You should anyway just in case someone still has a key for it, or knows the lock box combo. They could rob you blind one day if you dont.

Bolt cutters, hacksaw,sawzall with a metal blade, and like the other person said change your locks anyway and hold on to the lock box just in case the Realtor needs it back.Hope this helps you good luck.

If you don't know what realtor put it there, just call the local board of realtors or any realestate office and they should have someone with a key to remove it.
Do put a new lock on your house though. You have no idea who else has keys to your place.

Call your local Board of Realtors and see if they can help. In most areas those boxes are purchased from the Board. If that doesn't help, borrow a pair of bolt cutters and cut if off.

The realtors have to pay for these, so your realtor will likely follow up on removal of it if you contact him/her.
If that fails, a small hack saw will do the trick. I do agree with the earlier comment on changing your locks though.

Can't you just get a screwdriver and remove the door knob? Then you can slide the lock box off the handle.

If you have an association, ask someone in the office about what broker was used. Or just call around to all of them and ask.

Contact your condo association. If it is not authorized to be on the property, it can be removed.

I agree with calling a realtor to have it removed. I would also change my locks just to be safe.

get your building maintenance guy to cut it off
hang on to it for a while, in-case the Realtor calls for it
