If you read the Villages listing agreement, they have a section in there that if you remove the home from the market before the end of the agreement terms, they can assess a charge for advertising and open houses. Because they allow you to cancel the listing agreement at any time, they use this to hold you to the term of the listing. There has been times when someone lists their home, they get an acceptable offer from someone going to the seller directly, so this is used to recover their cost. If you list the home with them for the entire term of the contract, those costs can not be applied.
