Real estate services agreements live at the intersection of contract law and licensing rules. Commission structure, fiduciary duty, and required state disclosures all need to be inside the agreement — not in a separate addendum that can go missing.
Why real estate professionals need a service agreement
- Commission and fee structure must be clearly stated.
- Fiduciary or agency-relationship language is state-mandated.
- Required disclosures vary by state and license type.
Common scenarios
Property management engagement
Owner-PM agreement covering rent collection, maintenance authority, leasing fees, and reporting cadence.
Listing or buyer-rep agreement
Brokerage engagement with commission, term, exclusivity, and protected-period after expiration.
Real estate consulting
Advisory work (acquisition, asset management) with fee structure and conflict-of-interest disclosures.
Clauses to pay attention to
Common questions
- Do I need a separate disclosure form?
- Most states require a written agency-relationship disclosure delivered before substantive contact. Reference and attach it to the services agreement.
- How does a tail or protected period work?
- If a buyer or tenant identified during the term closes shortly after expiration, the broker still earns commission. Typical tails run 60–180 days.
- Can a property manager sign leases on my behalf?
- Yes if the agreement grants that authority — explicitly. Spell out which actions need owner approval (renewals over X term, capex over $Y).
