Get ready for question of the day. In a listing, which clause will allow a broker to collect a commission for a specified period of time after the listing term has expired? A. Release clause. B. Acceleration clause. C. Delay pay clause. D. Protection period clause. The answer is letter D.

To qualify, the agent must submit those prospect names in writing before the listing ends. Learn something new? Give us a like, tag a friend, and let's keep the conversation going.
