Before changing a listing to "Active Under Contract" status...

Published Thursday, August 1, 2019

• Do you have a fully signed binding contract executed? • Is the seller allowing the property to be shown during this time? • Is the seller accepting back up offers? Active Under Contract status should be used when a binding contract has been signed, subject to meeting certain contingency conditions while the property remains active with one of the following designations: • Soliciting Back-Up Offers • Sale of Buyer’s Property Contingency • Pending Short Sale Approval • REO/Offer Accepted • Inspection Period The property must be available for showing. Use the “Pending” status when there is a fully signed binding contract and the seller is NOT allowing the property to be shown. (Pending – This “Under Contract” designation shall be used when a binding contract has been signed, subject to meeting certain contingency conditions. This designation signifies that the property is neither active nor available for showing. This designation may be used for a rental property in the MLS when the listing broker is expecting a completed rental agreement or deposit, and, with the authorization of the landlord, is no longer showing the property.)
