What a real estate payment receipt records
Brokers give a receipt whenever money changes hands in a deal: an earnest money deposit after the contract is signed, a due diligence or option fee, an application fee or rent on a lease, or a commission. A real estate receipt names the payer, the property address and MLS number, the type of each payment and where it is held, such as the broker's trust account, the payment method and the agent who received it. This real estate receipt template covers those lines in one page and ends with a signature line for the agent or broker.

FAQs
Where does earnest money go?
Usually into the listing or buyer's broker's trust account, or to a title or escrow company, as the purchase contract says. State license laws set how quickly brokers must deposit it.
Is earnest money the same as a due diligence or option fee?
No. Earnest money is held and credited to the buyer at closing; a due diligence or option fee is paid to the seller for the right to inspect or cancel and is usually not refundable.
Can I use this for rent or a commission?
Yes. Change the payment type and description, and the Held in / paid to column.
Are the example details real?
No. The brokerage, payer, property, license and check numbers are fictional.
