Two from the bank, answered.

Real items, with the answer marked and the reason written out — the same format as all 400.

Principles of Real Estate

Which state agency licenses and regulates real estate sales agents and brokers in Texas?

  1. AThe Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC)Correct
  2. BThe Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs
  3. CThe Texas Association of Realtors (TAR)
  4. DThe Texas Real Estate Research Center

Why: TREC is the state agency created to administer the Real Estate License Act and regulate license holders. Private trade groups such as the Texas Association of Realtors set membership rules but do not issue licenses. Specifics of TREC rules can change over time.

Contracts

Which of the following is NOT one of the essential elements required for a valid, enforceable real estate contract?

  1. ALegal capacity of the parties
  2. BConsideration
  3. CNotarization of all buyer signaturesCorrect
  4. DOffer and acceptance (mutual assent)

Why: A valid contract requires offer and acceptance, consideration, legal capacity, legal purpose, and (for real estate) a writing. Notarization is not required to form a valid contract, though it may be needed to record certain documents.

The exam itself

Texas Real Estate Sales Agent, by the numbers.

QuestionsAt least 120 questionsTwo portions: national (85 items — 80 scored, 5 pretest) and Texas state law (50 items — 40 scored, 10 pretest). Pretest items are not identified. The same handbook's summary table prints the combined sales exam as 125 items, which does not equal 85 + 50 = 135; because the document contradicts itself, only the 120 scored items (80 + 40) are stated as a figure.
Time240 minutesThe 240 minutes cover both portions: 150 minutes for the national portion and 90 minutes for the state portion.
SectionsPrinciples of Real Estate · Agency & Law · Contracts · Finance · Property & Ownership · Real Estate Math
Passing score56 of 80 correctThat is the national portion. The state portion has its own cut: 28 correct of its 40 scored questions. Both portions must be passed. A failed portion can be retaken alone within 1 year of the TREC application; after 3 failed attempts, 30 more hours of qualifying education are required (60 hours if both portions were failed).
