The three types of real estate listing agreements are open listing, exclusive agency listing, and exclusive right-to-sell listing.
To avoid such predatory practices, California enacted Civil Code 1670.12 and Government Code 27280.6, which took effect January 1, 2024, prohibiting an exclusive listing agreement to last longer than 24 months or to renew such a listing for longer than 12 months.
