Introduced in the House on March 6, 2007, to prohibit real estate brokers who have entered an "exclusive agency" listing agreement with a seller from accepting a commission unless the broker offers the traditional "full range" of services, including accepting and presenting all offers and counteroffers, and providing various types of assistance required to finalize a transaction. However, a seller could waive most of these services by entering a limited service agreement. The bill would allow brokers to provide "unbundled" services (including certain internet-based marketing services) less than the full range of traditional services if the seller explicitly waives particular services
The vote was 103 in favor, 3 opposed and 4 not voting
