Description

In the context of real property law, a listing agreement governs the terms of the sale of real property by a third party real estate agency or broker. A listing contract may cover issues, among others, such as the price and terms of sale, broker's commission, agency duties of a listing agent, whether or not the property will be listed with the local MLS (multiple listing service), lockbox use, and resolution of disputes.


There are at least ten ways that a listing agreement may be terminated.


" When a real estate broker successfully sells a property for their client the listing agreement is complete.

" Listing agreements are typically inclusive of a definite time frame. When this period of time is reached, the listing agreement is terminated. Automatic extensions are illegal in many states, and are highly discouraged.

" If a broker does nothing to market the property, the owner of the property may end the listing due to the brokers abandonment of the property.

" Sellers can revoke the listing agreement, however there may be damages to the broker for which the seller can be held liable.

" Brokers can renounce the listing agreement, however they may be held for damages to the seller.

" Death, insanity, or bankruptcy of either the broker or the seller will often terminate the listing.

" Destruction of the property terminates the agreement because the agreement cannot be performed.

" The listing agreement can be terminated through a mutual consent between the broker and the seller.

" If the use of the property changes significantly, the listing agreement can be cancelled.

" In the real estate market, transfer of title by operation of law can terminate the listing agreement.

FAQ

For a contract to be valid and recognized by the common law, it must include certain elements-- offer, acceptance, consideration, intention to create legal relations, authority and capacity, and certainty. Without these elements, a contract is not legally binding and may not be enforced by the courts.

Writing Enforceable Contracts in Minnesota The legal definition of what constitutes a contract is relatively open-ended. As long as two parties intend to create a deal whereby one party provides something of value to another, and there is an exchange of something of value, there is a contract.

"Contract" means any written instrument or electronic document containing the elements of offer, acceptance, and consideration to which an agency is a party.

When you see a listing marked as “under contract,” it means the seller has accepted an offer, but there are still contingencies to clear before the deal can close. Contingencies are conditions added to a real estate contract. If all contingencies of a contract are met, the sale can move forward.

A listing agreement is between the parties that own a property and the agents or brokers who will find a buyer for it. Typically, a real estate listing agreement involves the property owner and a real estate agent. The property owner, or seller, grants the agent the right to market and sell the property.

Lesson Summary. A contract is a legal agreement between two or more parties in which they agree to each other's rights and responsibilities. Offer, acceptance, awareness, consideration, and capacity are the five elements of an enforceable contract.
