Rhode Island Agency Agreement with Agent for Owner of Real Estate Development Project is a legal contract that establishes the relationship between an owner of a real estate development project and their chosen agent. This agreement outlines the duties, responsibilities, and terms regarding the services the agent will provide to the owner. The primary purpose of such an agreement is to define the scope of work and ensure a clear understanding between the owner and the appointed agent. There are several types of Rhode Island Agency Agreements with Agents for the Owner of the Real Estate Development Project, including but not limited to: 1.

The agent acts as the sole representative of the owner and is responsible for marketing, negotiating contracts, and managing the development project. 2. Non-Exclusive Agency Agreement: In contrast to the exclusive agreement, this type allows the owner to work with multiple agents simultaneously.

However, only the agent who successfully procures a buyer or a deal is entitled to the agreed-upon commission. 3. Open Listing Agreement: This agreement permits the owner to work with various agents, and the agent who brings forth a buyer or a deal solely receives the commission.
