A buyer backed out and is paying a penalty—can I still claim my 2% commission?

Dear questioner,

It is decided according to the contract between you and the seller, as well as the default terms in Form F.

If the transaction is in Dubai, kindly drop your WhatsApp number to discuss the matter in detail.

Thank you for reaching out with your question regarding the commission in your real estate deal!

In situations like this, where the buyer backs out and agrees to pay the penalty, the terms of your agreement with the seller will primarily govern your eligibility for the 2% commission.

Typically, if the sale does not proceed, the commission might be subject to the specific clauses in your contract with the seller.

However, since the buyer has accepted the penalty, there may be a basis to claim your commission.

To provide you with the most accurate advice and to explore all possible options, I would recommend reviewing the agreement you have in place.

This will ensure that your rights are protected and you receive any commissions you are entitled to.

Please feel free to reach out to me on WhatsApp or phone at [---------] to discuss further, or you can email me at [---------]. I’m here to help you navigate this situation effectively.

Yes, you are eligible.
