Questions most often marked Wrong on Classes!

LISTING AGREEMENT IS A BROKERAGE SERVICES AGREEMENT  Most of the brokers taking the Core Curriculum do not seem to know that the Listing Agreement IS a Brokerage Services Agreement!  The Brokerage Services Agreement must be signed by the seller “as soon as reasonably practicable.”  Property management agreements and leases are also Brokerage services agreements.  Buyers also must sign a Brokerage Services Agreement.

TERMINATING BROKERAGE SERVICES AGREEMENT  Either party can terminate a brokerage services agreement at any time.  It should be in writing to be enforceable and there may be consequences like the tail provision or costs or that incurred.  Some brokers mistakenly assume and tell the client that they MUST remain a client until the agreement expires.

FIRST LOOK with the NWMLS will function like a coming soon listing option.  The property must be timely submitted to NWMLS and accessible to all the member brokers and remain in that status for 3 weeks or less.  They can choose to allow showings and generate interest, gather buyer inquiries and test pricing.  Price drops or extended days on the market will not show in the listing feed.

POCKET LISTINGS LAW  Washington State enacted a law effective in June 2026 that prohibits “pocket listings.”  A paragraph was also added to the Agency Law Pamphlet.  That means that if you advertise properties on your website, for example, they must be listed in the MLS.  One agent recently had listings on their broker website that are not listed.  These are considered to be “pocket listings” that are not offered to the public.  Contact your Designated Broker.

FAIR HOUSING AND ANTI-DISCRIMINATION   The Federal Fair housing Act applies basically to Housing.  The WA Law Against Discrimination is broader and includes housing, land, commercial transactions to name a few.  The protected classes in Washington STATE include Race/Color, Religion (even uncommon or unexpected religions), Sex (Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity), Age, Marital Status, Familial Status, Disability, Military and Veteran Status, Use of Service Animal or trained dog guide, HIV/AIDS and HepC, State employee or health care whistleblower, and Consumer/ credit history.  Many broker are not aware of some of these protected classes.

It would be wise to not repeat anything you hear or assume things about people in the military, an uncommon religion, or have hijabs, turbans, yarmulkes, uncut hair, beards, or dreadlocks, or assumption about people’s habits from another country or cultural aspects of a person.  Do not ask prospective clients about their religious beliefs, their marital status or even their hair.
