Real estate tip when listing your property for sale: When entering into a Multiple Listing Contract with your realtor of choice, make sure to ask what his/her cancellation policy is. If it's 'conditional ' ask what the conditions are. To avoid any unexpected costs, you should have this information before you sign the listing contract.
