My husband and I own a duplex in the Mound area in Minnesota and our renter's lease is expiring in the end of April.  

There is the following language under the broker fee paragraph: "The aforesaid fee shall also be due upon sale of the property to any person who was introduced to the PROPERTY during the aforesaid term or any extension or who entered into an agreement to purchase during the term, during any extension or within 180 days after expiration of the term or any extension, regardless of the date that title passes, except if the SELLER has entered into an exclusive agreement with another broker in good faith, in which case the BROKER shall be entitled to receive only the difference between the fee set forth herein and any lesser net fee paid to the other broker."

Hello Aaron,There is much cheaper hard money available than 15% + 5 points depending on credit score, experience and liquidity.

An agent can not pay a commission to an unlicensed person.To put some of this in perspective, if an agent doesn't renew his license before it expires, he can not collect any commission for any sale which closes escrow while his license is expired even if all of the work was done while licensed.The real estate laws don't distinguish between retail and wholesale.

@Ed E. 

When does your lease expire?
