Steps to Become a Real Estate Sales Agent licensed by TREC in Texas A sales agent is a person who is licensed by the Real Estate Commission to act as an agent on behalf of a real estate broker and their clients. A sales agent must be sponsored by a licensed Broker in order to perform any act of real estate services. You have one year from the date your application is filed to meet all license requirements. Once you have met all the requirements to get your license, including finding a broker sponsorship, TREC will send an active sales agent license to your broker and to you via email. Qualifications

Fingerprints on file for other agencies will not be accepted. A license will not issue if the background check has not been passed. Expect a delay if you are notified of an investigation into your background history. Take the Exam License exams are administered by PearsonVUE, a testing service company. You will be sent a notice with instructions for scheduling the exam and obtaining a copy of the exam Candidate Handbook. If you fail the exam three times, additional education will be necessary. Find a Sponsor After meeting the above requirements, you will be issued an inactive license. You need to be sponsored by an active Texas licensed broker to practice real estate. You can complete a sponsorship request using TREC's online services. Once the broker has accepted your request, your active license will be issued, and you can practice as a Sales Agent. I work alone - from home - and in the car. I do not have a staff or support. The registration, ease of navigation of this site and of the courses, fits me so well. THANK YOU. At registration, I was assisted by a highly attentive and helpful support staff, Deshon. When I needed assistance signing on - the support staff - was spot on helpful, and kept me making progress!
