relative to homeowners and prohibiting certain types of listing agreements.

SB 164 prohibits real estate brokers from using certain listing agreements that bind future homeowners, allow third-party assignment without consent, create legal claims on property, or charge fees for sales not resulting from their services. It directly affects homeowners (owners of 1-4 residential units) and real estate brokers by making such agreements unenforceable and void if recorded. The law allows affected homeowners to recover damages, costs, and attorney fees if a prohibited agreement is recorded, and it becomes effective January 1, 2026.
