📋 Exclusive vs Open Listings: What’s Best for Commercial Sales?

When listing property through a broker, you’ll choose between:

Exclusive Listing:

• You authorize only one broker to market your property.

• Pros: Focused effort, confidentiality, better control.

• Cons: Limited exposure if the broker is not proactive.

Open Listing:

• Multiple brokers can market your property simultaneously.

• Pros: Broader reach, multiple offers.

• Cons: Risk of inconsistent pricing and misinformation.

Best Practice: Use an exclusive listing with a performance clause (e.g., if no leads in 30 days, you can switch brokers).
