TREC

If you prefer, you can also submit the Application for Inactive Broker or Sales Agent Status form by email.

1. The name of the license holder or team placing the advertisement; and
2. The broker’s name in at least half the size of the largest contact information for any sales agent, associated broker, or team name contained in the advertisement.

• A broker’s name includes a broker’s assumed business name that has been registered with TREC.
• Requirements for an assumed business name and team name are set out in Rule 535.154
• There is no requirement that a phone number or email address included in an advertisement belong to the broker.

• If there is no residential service company contract as part of the transaction, you do not need to provide this form.
• If you are not being paid a fee by a residential service company, you do not need to provide this form.
• If a residential service company contract is part of the transaction but you do not receive a fee from that specific company, you do not need to provide this form.

Generally, the only reason you might fill out this form if you do not receive a fee from a residential service company is because the other agent or broker in your transaction is providing their own disclosure. In this situation, you would fill out the appropriate portion of the form and check the box that says you "will receive no compensation from a residential service company." Your signature in this situation is merely disclosure and is not an endorsement, approval, or otherwise binding.
