Can an exclusive agency listing be included in the MLS?

An exclusive agency listing can indeed be included in the Multiple Listing Service (MLS). This type of listing allows a property owner to sell their home independently and still work with a real estate agent. If the property owner sells the home without the agent's assistance, the agent does not receive a commission. However, when the listing is entered into the MLS, it is made available to other brokers and agents in the area, allowing for broader exposure of the property.

By including exclusive agency listings in the MLS, agents can collaborate and leverage each other's networks to facilitate a sale, while property owners retain the right to sell on their own. This arrangement benefits all parties involved by providing a platform for greater visibility and potential offers on the property.

The other options suggest limitations or restrictions that do not align with the standard practices of the MLS, where exclusive agency listings are generally accepted just like other types of listings.
