Which clause in a listing contract automatically terminates the listing when the property is sold?

The expiration date in a listing contract marks the end of the validity period of the agreement. While it does terminate the contract, it is not contingent upon the sale of the property. Therefore, this clause does not apply specifically to the sale of the property, as it simply represents a timeline rather than an event that concludes the contract based on a successful transaction.

The listing of the house refers to the act of formally putting the property on the market and does not constitute a termination clause. This option focuses on the initiation of the listing rather than an event that concludes the contract. As such, it does not address the automatic termination of the contract upon the sale of the property.

While this clause gives the seller significant flexibility, it does not automatically terminate the listing upon the sale of the property. Instead, it provides the seller with an option to cancel at their discretion, independent of whether the property has been sold or not. Thus, it lacks the specificity of a clause that directly relates to the sale as a termination condition.
