An Oregon real estate listing agreement is used by real estate brokers to establish a working relationship with property owners, authorizing them to sell their property on their behalf. The document details the manner in which the broker may advertise the property, what fixtures or personal property may be included in the sale, and if the broker has exclusive rights on the listing.

The commission that the broker is entitled to upon the sale of the property is also detailed in the agreement and incentivizes the agent to get the highest possible price for the seller, making the agreement mutually beneficial.
