Listing agreement and signature

What happens if an invited party declines to sign the listing agreement?

The case does not end, it changes state. Which state depends on what the party actually wants.

  • “Change requested” — the party wants something in the agreement altered. There is a state of its own for this, which keeps the agreement open.
  • “Superseded by a newer version” — you then produce a revised version. It takes the place of the previous one, which is retained rather than overwritten.
  • “Terminated” — the agreement is withdrawn altogether.
  • “Expired” — the validity period has run out without a signature.

You read the current state in plain language on the property page.

That the previous version is retained is not a side effect but the point: it should remain traceable later what was originally negotiated and what became of it.
