A Tennessee real estate listing agreement is a contract between a real estate agent and a property seller that allows the agent to represent the seller by listing, marketing, and negotiating the sale of their residential property on their behalf.

As defined in the contract, the agent will earn a commission upon the successful sale of the residence. However, the agent must sell the property within the term of their agreement. The majority of listing agreements are exclusive, meaning that the agent will be given the sole right to sell the relevant property during the period of their contract.

• Laws – § 62-13-401

• Purchase Agreement – A real estate contract for the sale of residential property between the buyer and seller.
