Now it's time for meat and potatoes! Exclusive Right to Sell. This listing gives the seller the ultimate attention of the Realtor, regardless of who sells the close, sub-agent, buyer-agent, cobrokering office, seller, etc. A commission is due and payable to the broker who is the agent of the property. Having fully exercised diligence in finding a buyer through his or her own efforts, or MLS, etc., the Realtor gets paid a full commission as agreed upon in the listing contract which, by the way, must have a starting and ending date.

Choosing the Right Realtor

When you list your home, you can almost bet it will be sold through the cooperation of an office other than the one with whom you listed your property. Most of the time your property will sell though the multiple listing service before the listing is into the third or fourth month of the listing agreement. Why? Hopefully, you have studied closely a CMA and priced your home to sell, not wasting the time of both yourself and the Realtor. You may have had your property listed once or maybe even twice with different companies before it sells. If that is the case, most Realtors will have explained again and again about your property being over priced, so that you probably will be ready to reduce your asking price to a fair market value.
