FAQ

First off, without a defined expiration date, you didn't have a ratified listing agreement. Second, in California, as of 2024, you cannot have a listing agreement term for longer than 24 months, and if you essentially had an indefinite listing agreement, this would be unlawful.

The requirement that all listing agreements have a definite expiration date is typically the responsibility of state real estate licensing laws and regulations. Each state has its own laws and regulations governing real estate transactions, including listing agreements between sellers and real estate agents.

Once this agreement expires, your real estate agent no longer represents you. It also means your listing will officially no longer be for sale, as it will be removed from platforms like Realtor®. It will also be removed from the multiple listing service, also called the MLS.

Second, in California, as of 2024, you cannot have a listing agreement term for longer than 24 months, and if you essentially had an indefinite listing agreement, this would be unlawful.

A written buyer agency agreement must have a definite end date and will automatically expire on the end date. In addition death of the buyer or when the buyer purchases a property will terminate the buyer agency agreement.

The three types of real estate listing agreements are open listing, exclusive agency listing, and exclusive right-to-sell listing.

The written listing agreements in real estate must not contain a self-renewing clause. However, they must contain elements like property description and a definite expiration date. It's also acceptable for them to contain a clause requiring the broker to deliver the agreement to the seller within a certain timeframe.

There is no standard time for these agreements. We have seen agents present agreements to their clients ranging from 60-days up to 1- year. In our opinion, you should not be signing contracts for more than 4 months when you first start working with a listing agent.

The most common listing lengths are 30 days, 90 days, six months or one year, but you can choose any time frame. However, realtors typically won't take listings for less than 30 days and 90-day or six-month listings are the most common choices.

The duration of an Exclusive Right to Sell agreement can vary and is typically negotiable between the seller and the real estate agent or broker. However, the most common length of such agreements is around 90 to 180 days (3 to 6 months).
