A Maryland real estate listing agreement is used to hire a real estate agent and set the conditions by which they can handle the selling of residential property. The form will dictate the selling price, agent duties, the listing period, selling rights, and marketing permissions that the agent must adhere to.

Signing the form means that the agent agrees to market the property to the best of their abilities to ensure the optimal price for the buyer. If an agent cannot secure a sale at the owner’s chosen price within the agreement term, the agent must delist the home and end activities related to the selling of the property.

  • Laws – § 17-532
  • Dual Agency (§ 17-530.1) – A real estate broker may provide agency for the buyer and seller of a transaction upon receiving written authorization from both parties.
  • Purchase Agreement – Homebuyers may use this form to enter into a legal agreement to purchase a residential property.
