New York License Law
In New York, an 'open listing' means the seller:
AHas listed the property with multiple brokers and will pay only the broker who procures a buyer✓ Correct
BHas agreed to pay any broker who shows the property a fee
CHas listed the property with a single broker who has the exclusive right to sell
DHas listed the property on the MLS for a flat fee
Explanation
An open listing is a non-exclusive arrangement in which the seller retains the right to list with multiple brokers and to sell the property personally. Only the broker who actually procures the buyer (the procuring cause) earns the commission. Open listings provide the seller maximum flexibility but the least broker commitment.
