In an exclusive right to sell listing with a broker protection clause, what happens if the owner sells the property one day after the clause term?

In an exclusive right to sell listing agreement that includes a broker protection clause, the broker is entitled to a commission even if the property is sold shortly after the term of the listing agreement expires, provided that the sale is a result of the broker's efforts during that term. The broker protection clause is designed to protect the broker's right to receive a commission on any sale that occurs after the listing period if the buyer was introduced to the property during the listing term.

This means that if the owner sells the property one day after the term of the listing, and the buyer was either introduced or negotiated through the broker's efforts while the listing agreement was in effect, the broker is entitled to the full commission as defined in the original agreement. Thus, the correct answer reflects that the broker has a valid claim for remuneration, ensuring that the interests and efforts of the broker are recognized even after the formal listing period has ended.
