58-30,105 Compensation.

(b) Payment of compensation by itself shall not establish an agency between the party who paid the compensation and the broker or any affiliated licensee.

A broker may be compensated by more than one party for services in a transaction if the parties consent in writing to the multiple payments at or before the time of entering into a contract to buy, sell or lease.
(d) A broker may:
(1) Pay a commission or compensation to any licensee affiliated with the broker for performing services under this act;
(2) with the written agreement of the seller, landlord, buyer or tenant share a commission with another broker who acted as a transaction broker, a subagent or an agent of the other party; and
(3) pay a referral fee to a person who is licensed as a broker under the real estate brokers' and salespersons' license act or under the law of another jurisdiction, provided that written disclosure is made to the client of any financial interest that the broker has in the brokerage firm receiving the referral fee.
