The agreement must outline the exact amount or rate of compensation to be received or provide a method for determining this amount. However, the compensation must be "objectively ascertainable" and cannot be left open-ended. For instance, stating "buyer broker compensation shall be whatever amount the seller is offering to the buyer" is not permissible under the settlement terms. (Don't be lazy and try to use this as a catch-all phrase). It won't fly. HUGE Announcement: You will love this! Looking for the full outline from today's presentation?
