Am I obligated to sell if a broker brings me a full-price offer?

Not automatically — accepting or rejecting any offer is your decision as the seller, and a broker bringing you a full-price offer doesn't itself force you to sign a purchase agreement. What a full-price offer can do, depending on your listing agreement's wording, is trigger the broker's right to commission even if you decline to proceed, on the theory that the broker did what they were engaged to do by producing a buyer willing to meet your stated terms.

This is exactly the kind of clause worth understanding before you sign a listing agreement, not after a full-price offer lands on your desk. Some agreements tie commission strictly to an actual closing; others tie it to producing a "ready, willing, and able" buyer at the listed price and terms, regardless of whether you ultimately sell. If you're facing this situation now, the agreement's specific language — not general fairness — will determine whether commission is owed on a deal you decide not to complete. A Treadstone business lawyer can review the wording and your options before you respond to the offer.
