Zillow Requires A Valid Listing Agreement

I have a 90-day option to market a property, but Zillow is requiring that I provide a valid listing agreement showing that I "have exclusive permission from the owner to list the property. The listing agreement must include the following:

  • * The agreement's valid date (must be signed within the past 30 days)
  • * Brokerage and agent representing the owner
  • * Signature from both parties entering the agreement
  • * Full property address (including the unit number, if applicable)
  • * Terms stating that you have exclusive permission from the owner to rent/lease the property"

The problem is I am not a realtor or broker. I'm an investor. This is my first deal; I need to list it on Zillow as soon as possible to get buyers. 

Does anyone have a listing agreement I can have the seller sign to satisfy Zillow's requirement? My partner told me to try using another Option and a mock Lease Agreement... I don't want to try that if it won't work, and would rather provide a listing agreement instead. All of the listing agreements I've found online are between sellers and realtors, not investors. 

Any guidance with this is greatly appreciated!
