What Is a Disbursement Authorization in Real Estate?
A disbursement authorization communicates approved payment instructions using transaction, commission, brokerage, agent, and closing information.
Gather approved transaction details
A disbursement authorization communicates approved payment instructions using transaction, commission, brokerage, agent, and closing information. Begin by documenting who owns the work, which records are required, and how the next person knows the file is ready.
Review the commission calculation
A disbursement authorization communicates approved payment instructions using transaction, commission, brokerage, agent, and closing information. A consistent process reduces duplicate entry and makes unresolved work easier for authorized staff to find.
Generate and retain the instruction document
A disbursement authorization communicates approved payment instructions using transaction, commission, brokerage, agent, and closing information. The strongest system is one agents and administrators can use consistently while brokerage leaders retain appropriate oversight.
