This agreement allows the broker to act as a non-exclusive agent in the sale of specified real estate, meaning the owner can employ multiple brokers. The document outlines the duties of both the owner and the broker, including commissions and the terms of the listing period. This form is distinct from exclusive agreements, where only one broker is authorized to sell the property.
