the buyer has the right to cancel a home solicitation sale until midnight of the third business day after the day on which the buyer signs an agreement or offer to purchase
Clay County runs no county-wide no-knock registry, but a posted 'No Soliciting' or 'No Trespassing' sign carries legal force. A solicitor who ignores it can be charged with first-degree trespass, a class B misdemeanor under Missouri law.
Mo. Rev. Stat. § 569.140.1
A person commits the offense of trespass in the first degree if he or she knowingly enters unlawfully or knowingly remains unlawfully in a building or inhabitable structure or upon real property.
