"Exclusive right to sell" is a type of listing contract you enter into with a real estate agent. Put simply, it says that the signing agent is the only person allowed to market and sell your property for a certain amount of time. Generally, these agreements last anywhere from one to six months.
An exclusive right to sell listing is an agreement that entitles the broker to a commission regardless of who sells the property. An exclusive agency listing is similar to an exclusive right to sell listing, but under this agreement, the broker is only entitled to a commission if they are the ones that find the buyer.
Exclusive right to market, distribute, or manufacture: Parties agree that a distributor will only handle certain products and that a manufacturer will only buy from certain suppliers.
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).
These buyer agreements typically establish an “agency” relationship between you and your agent — meaning, the agent is bound to advise and advocate on your behalf during the duration of your agreement. This means the buyer's agent represents solely you — not the seller — in the transaction.
