An Illinois real estate listing agreement is used to establish a broker’s rights and responsibilities regarding the marketing and sale of their client’s residential property. The agreement permits the broker to advertise the home for a certain amount of time and, upon closing the transaction, earn a commission from the sale.

Among other requirements, an Illinois listing agreement must contain the asking price, listing period, commission rate or fee, broker duties, and the signatures of both the broker and seller. Each party will be bound to the agreement until the end of the listing period and any subsequent extensions.

  • Laws – § 1450.770

  • Purchase Agreement – A binding contract between a seller and buyer that specifies the terms of an official purchase proposal.
