An unexpected illness, a new opportunity, a change in the market, or a change in your personal life: These are all common reasons why Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) license holders may take a break from the business.
Whether your break is planned or unexpected, setting your sales agent, broker, or inspector license to inactive status before your renewal or renewing as inactive is the best move if you want return to the real estate business in the future. Here?s why.
It sounds like an ideal scenario if you?re a landlord or listing agent for a residential lease: A licensed sales agent submits a prospective tenant?s application to you with proof of a clean background check and great credit report. But is that tenant?s agent making life easier for you, or is it a scam?
Many advertising-related complaints can be handled easily, from adding missing brokerage information on?for sale?signs to adding missing required links on a license holder?s website. Because of these simple remedies, TREC is launching the Advertising Compliance Program, which will streamline the processing of complaints that deal only with advertising violations.
