As a result of a recommendation by the Sunset Advisory Commission, the 德州议会 is considering passage of a bill that would eliminate TREC’s authority to approve instructors. Accordingly, the commission proposed amendments to the rules to reflect this change. TREC will still determine qualifications that an instructor of a TREC-approved course must meet, but the instructor will be approved by the education provider. In terms of those instructor qualifications, TREC has proposed eliminating the 8-hour adult education instructor training course required within four years of an application to teach qualifying or non-elective continuing education courses.

Payments Between Settlement 服务提供商

2021十大正规彩票app修订的 §535.148 would provide clarity about federal law prohibiting the paying or receiving of funds to other settlement service providers defined by RESPA. TREC currently has a rule that includes these provisions for inspectors, but not explicitly for other real estate license holders.

All the proposed rule changes will be 发布 in an upcoming Texas Register, after which the public will have 30 days to comment. Once published in the register, you can send comments to 一般.counsel@trec.德州.政府.
