Transaction Fee Today I went to the above broker to retrieve a paper called a Listing Agreement that seemed to be missing from my file. When all of these papers were signed, the real estate agent took them and dropped me off copies the next day. Anyway, when I got the Listing Agreement, much to my surprise, I had supposedly signed an agreement to pay the broker a "transaction fee" of $695 plus his commission. I truly do not believe that line was filled in when i signed the agreement, but if it was, it surely was never explained to me that I would be responsible for that charge. Strange thing is; there is no transaction between the broker and myself, they have never shown my house, advertised it ... no open house ... nothing. The buyer passed by and saw the sign. Is this transaction fee legal? What can I do about it?
