Protection & Safety Clause is typically associated with which listing type?

• A. Protection & Safety Clause
• B. Joint Listings
• C. Exclusive Right to Sell
• D. Exclusive Agency

Answer: (A)

The Protection & Safety Clause is a provision you’ll find inside listing contracts to set safe showing rules and to protect the broker’s commission during and after the listing period. It isn’t a separate listing type itself; it’s a contractual safeguard that accompanies the agreement between seller and broker. Because it’s tied to the contract that governs how a property is listed and sold, it’s most closely associated with the listing agreement, especially the kind that gives the broker strong protection of their commission (the exclusive rights to sell arrangement). That connection makes it the best match among the options, since the clause lives in the contract rather than in one of the listing-type categories.
