The Texas Real Estate Commission is pleased to announce the appointment of members to the Broker Responsibility Working Group (BRWG). The BRWG reviews experience requirements and role responsibilities for brokers and makes recommendations to the Commission based on its findings. Members will meet four or five times in the next 10 months to complete the charge given to them by the Commission.  

Appointed members include, Chair, Bill Jones (Temple), Bill Evans (Austin), Bob Baker (Plano), Bob Jacobs (San Antonio), Gayla Skates (Cypress), Jessica Craig (Arlington), Kelly Gonzalez (Laredo), Mary Lynne Gibbs (Lakeway), Nancy Herzig (Houston).

The BRWG has been charged with reviewing broker licensing requirements, minimum competency requirements, broker mentorship programs, minimum service requirements in relation to service fees, and temporary out of state registrations for commercial transactions.

This working group is not only vital to the success of the agency, but plays an instrumental role in shaping the regulation of real estate licensure in Texas. The Commission thanks all those individuals who have volunteered to serve and looks forward to hearing their recommendations.
