Is the Real Estate Listing Broker involved with the sales contract?
Typically No -To save on commission, you will handle many details of the sale yourself. The Listing Broker is mainly getting paid to list your property on the MLS, as you requested. If the Seller requests assistance with the purchase contract, counter-offers, placing contract in escrow, contingency issues, closing & settlement matters – the Listing Broker offers extra services for a reasonable additional fee. If you want or need additional assistance involving your transaction (though you should be able to handle things yourself) ask your Agent about other available services. Most of our associates offer additional optional services.
