Document background
The Real Estate Listing Contract (Immobilienmaklervertrag) is a fundamental document in Austrian property transactions, used when a property owner wishes to engage a professional real estate broker to market and sell their property. This contract type is essential for establishing clear terms of engagement between the parties and ensuring compliance with Austrian real estate regulations. The document typically includes detailed specifications of the property, broker's services, commission structures, and marketing commitments. It must comply with various Austrian laws, including the MaklerG, ABGB, and consumer protection regulations. The contract is particularly important as it protects both parties' interests and sets clear expectations for the brokerage relationship, while ensuring adherence to strict Austrian real estate industry standards and practices.
