In this episode you will learn: - That all real estate commissions in Texas must be paid to the sponsoring broker, never directly to a sales agent. - How to correctly handle bonuses or other valuable consideration offered by clients or builders. - That TREC does not mediate commission disputes between licensees; these are handled through mediation, arbitration, or the courts. - The requirements for legally enforceable commission agreements, including the necessity of a written and signed document. - The rules governing real estate team names, advertising, and how teams are compensated through their sponsoring broker.
