A Michigan real estate listing agreement appoints a real estate agent to assist a property owner in the process of listing and selling their residential real estate. The form allows the agent to determine their client’s needs and reach an agreement on how the agent will proceed with marketing the home, the duration of the campaign, and the price sought by the owner.

While the agent will advise the owner on current market conditions and provide opinions on the property value, the seller is the sole decider in setting the desired price, and it is the agent’s duty to sell the home for the highest possible rate no less than the owner’s specified amount. Once the seller and agent both sign the listing agreement, they are bound to the conditions and terms outlined in the document.

• Laws – § 339.2517
• Dual Agency (§ 339.2517(3)(2)(e)) – Written mutual consent from all parties involved in a transaction is required prior to dual agency taking effect.
