I had my home for sale with an agent when I received a call from another realtor telling me that my Home expired. What do you mean my Home expired? Did I forget to cover it is Saran wrap? No, expired is an industry term for when your listing agreement with your current agent expires or reaches the end date set forth in the contract. So what are your options?

When your current listing contract ends there are several things you can do. If you are happy with the services that your agent has been providing you, you can sign an extension. The legnth of this extension is negotiable, so only make it for a legnth you feel comfortable with.

You may also choose to use this time to interview other realtors. This gives you a chance to compare services and to see if your current realtor is the right person to continue with or if changing to a new realtor that will better suit your needs.

If your plans have changed this might be a good time to take your home off the market and look for a better time to relist your home.
