Listing paperwork must be shared with the Transaction Operations team within 48 hours of execution. Listings can only go live as a Coming Soon or as active on the MLS once the listing agreement has been shared with and approved by the Transaction Operations department.

  • Price reductions and status changes must receive written approval from the seller prior to submitting to the Transaction Operations team.

  • Commission reductions require prior approval from your Sales Manager, which you can request using this form.

  • Compass requires all sales listings to have a sellers disclosure with the listing agreement.

  • Please reference the Florida Agent Manual for further information on compliance.
