In an exclusive right-to-sell listing, how many brokers can the owner list the property with?

In an exclusive right-to-sell listing, the property owner is allowed to list their property with only one broker at a time. This arrangement grants the selected broker full rights to act as the sole agent for the sale of the property, meaning they will earn a commission regardless of who actually brings the buyer to the table. This exclusivity is designed to motivate the broker to invest their time and resources into marketing the property effectively since they are assured of receiving compensation for their efforts upon a successful sale.

While it might be possible for property owners to engage with multiple brokers in other arrangements, such as exclusive agency or open listings, the exclusive right-to-sell structure specifically limits the property listing to a single broker to ensure a clear and straightforward sales process. Such a model helps in maintaining focus and developing a strong marketing strategy by one dedicated representative.
