A Hawaii real estate listing agreement is a contract that outlines the boundaries in which a licensed agent is permitted to sell their client’s real estate. After the document is signed, the agent will be responsible for marketing the property, scheduling open houses, negotiating with buyers, and presenting offers to the seller.
The most widely-used agreement type is the “exclusive right to sell.” With this listing agreement, the agent receives the sole and exclusive right to earn a commission from the sale, regardless of whether the property is sold through their brokerage firm. Agents should be advised that any adverse property facts must be disclosed to prospective purchasers.
