A critical component of any listing contract is the commission paid by the seller upon the transaction closing (typically around 5-6% of the final sales price). Indiana law requires the contract to be in writing, with a copy provided to the seller within three business days of signing.

  • Laws – 876 IAC 8-2-1
  • Dual Agency (IC 25-34.1-10-12 & IC 25-34.1-10-7) – A licensee may represent both buyer and seller as a “limited agent” so long as both parties give written consent.
  • Purchase Agreement – Details the conditions of an official purchase offer. The contract is negotiable and only becomes final once both the seller and buyer have agreed to all terms.
