1. After the court has granted authority
to sell real property of a protected person, a guardian may enter into a
written contract with any bona fide agent, broker or multiple agents or brokers
to secure a purchaser for such property. Such a contract may grant an exclusive
right to sell the property to the agent, broker or multiple agents or brokers.
2. The guardian shall provide for the
payment of a commission upon the sale of the real property which:
(a) Must be paid from the proceeds of the sale;
(b) Must be fixed in an amount not to exceed:
(1) Ten percent for unimproved real
property; or
(2) Seven percent for real property with
any type of improvement; and
(c) Must be authorized by the court by confirmation
of the sale.
3. Upon confirmation of the sale by the
court, the contract for the sale becomes binding and enforceable against the
estate.
4. A guardian may not be held personally
liable and the estate is not liable for the payment of any commission set forth
in a contract entered into with an agent or broker pursuant to this section
until the sale is confirmed by the court, and then is liable only for the
amount set forth in the contract.
