The California Association of REALTORS form RLA is one of the foundational documents of the real estate business in the Bay Area and California as a whole. No, the paperwork required is not a buyer broker agreement at all.A listing agreement is a legally binding contract between the seller (you) and the real estate brokerage that helps you sell your home. If a seller does agree to cover their cost, the buyer's broker cannot be compensated any more than the amount specified in the buyer's contract. Unless you authorized the agent to fill in the blanks, if the agent filled in the blank spaces, the listing agreement is probably unenforceable. Just as before, sellers will sign an agreement with their listing agent, setting their commission. Once you select a plan, the necessary documents will be automatically assigned to you. A listing agreement is a legal document between a property owner (seller) and a licensed real estate broker. There is no contract to sign that says this.
