Practice & ContractsQuestion 102 of 120

An open listing given to several brokers at once means that:

a.Only one broker may show the property
b.Only the broker who procures the buyer earns a commission
c.The seller cannot sell it personally
d.All listed brokers split any commission

Explanation

In an open listing, a seller may engage multiple brokers and only the one who actually procures the buyer earns a commission. The seller may also sell the property personally without owing any commission. This nonexclusive arrangement offers brokers the least protection.
