This course satisfies the required 6 hours of Broker Responsibility credit that supervising licensees (broker OR agent) need to renew their license in Texas.  

This course addresses the regulatory aspects of managing and operating a Texas brokerage firm, as well as providing supervision for the licensees employed within. This includes provisions from The Real Estate License Act (Chapter 1101 of the Texas Occupations Code) and the TREC Rules (22 TAC Chapter 535). 

We'll review the Roles of the Delegated Supervisors & Teams; Ensuring Competency & Training for Agents; Practical Application Related to Required Documentation; Additional Broker Responsibility & TREC Enforcement & Broker Responsibility. 

Important: Sales Agents under regular CE requirements must also complete the 6-hour Broker Responsibility course if they have been made Supervisor by their broker.  

The expanding scope of CMA skills encompasses not only the traditional aspects of evaluating comparable properties but also incorporates a deeper understanding of market trends, demographic shifts, and economic indicators. A proficient real estate agent must possess the expertise to interpret data accurately, utilizing advanced tools and technologies to generate insights that drive informed decision-making for clients.
