Oregon License Law

Under Oregon law, an affiliated licensee (broker) may accept compensation from a transaction party:

ADirectly from either the buyer or seller
BOnly through the affiliated principal broker✓ Correct
CFrom any party, provided it is disclosed in writing
DOnly from the listing brokerage

Explanation

Under ORS Chapter 696, all compensation earned by an affiliated broker (not a principal broker) must be paid through their affiliated principal broker. Brokers cannot receive compensation directly from clients or third parties — all payments flow through the brokerage. This ensures proper accounting and supervision by the principal broker.
