Buying or selling property can be overwhelming. Because of the size and complexity of the transaction, consumers often hire a real estate broker to navigate the process. The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) is responsible for educating, licensing, and enforcing the rules and laws for real estate brokers, sales agents, inspectors, easement or right-of-way agents, and timeshare plans.
