Listing Agreement

  

The realtor asked for 6%, but you took a hard line. So she took 5%, agreed to stage the house at her cost, and you listed the home with her firm. There was a listing agreement that spelled out the various terms, legal issues, and elements that mattered for the contract to be valid.

It was. You sold the listed home. She got her commish. And you got your cash. The end.
