How do I get the listing agent to sign on the offer?
Houzeo uses a flat fee model, meaning you represent yourself in the sale (FSBO) even though you’ll work with a listing agent. Unlike traditional real estate, where agents are parties to the transaction, our agents assist you but aren’t required to sign offers.
However, rules about agent involvement in offers can vary by state and MLS. Always check local regulations or consult a real estate professional for specific guidance.
