The Listing Agent Agreement (Makelaarsopdracht) is a crucial document in Dutch real estate transactions, used when a property owner wishes to engage a professional real estate agent to market and sell their property. This agreement is essential for establishing clear terms of engagement, defining the scope of services, and protecting both parties' interests under Dutch law. It specifies the agent's authority to market the property, conduct viewings, negotiate with potential buyers, and earn a commission upon successful sale. The document must comply with Dutch Civil Code requirements, professional real estate regulations, and relevant consumer protection laws. It's particularly important in the Netherlands where real estate transactions are highly regulated and professional representation is common practice.
