A real estate broker's ability to enforce a commission claim without a written agreement is?

Possible with verbal consent
Enforcable if the sale is successful
Not enforceable due to lack of written agreement
Automatically granted after a sale

The correct answer is: Not enforceable due to lack of written agreement

A real estate broker's ability to enforce a commission claim without a written agreement is not possible due to lack of written agreement. Verbal consent may not be enough to prove the agreed upon commission. The claim is also not automatically granted after a sale as there must be a clear agreement in writing for the broker to be entitled to a commission. The option stating it is only enforceable if the sale is successful is also incorrect as the written agreement would still be necessary regardless of the success of the sale.
