Importantly, the compensation outlined in this addendum is separate from any seller concessions credited to the buyer in the contract. Additionally, it provides written consent for the buyer’s broker to receive compensation from more than one party in the transaction. The addendum also clarifies that brokers are intended direct third-party beneficiaries of the contract or lease agreement.
