TREC Agency Disclosure
INFORMATION ABOUT BROKERAGE SERVICES
Texas law requires all real estate licensees to give the following information
about brokerage services to prospective buyers, tenants, sellers and landlords.
Before working with a real estate broker, you should know that the duties of a
broker depend on whom the broker represents. If you are a prospective seller
or landlord (owner) or a prospective buyer or tenant (buyer), you should know
that the broker who lists the property for sale or lease is the owner’s agent. A
broker who acts as a subagent represents the owner in cooperation with the
listing broker. A broker who acts as a buyer’s agent represent the buyer. A
broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the parties consent in
writing. A broker can assist you in locating a property, preparing a contract or
lease, or obtaining financing without representing you. A broker is obligated by
law to treat you honestly.
IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE OWNER:
The broker becomes the owner’s agent by entering into an agreement with
the owner, usually through a written listing agreement, or by agreeing to act
as a subagent by accepting an offer of subagency from the listing broker. A
subagent may work in a different real estate office. A listing broker or subagent
can assist the buyer but does not represent the buyer and must place the
interests of the owner first. The buyer should not tell the owner’s agent anything
the buyer would not want the owner to know because an owner’s agent must
disclose to the owner any material information known to the agent.
IF THE BROKER REPRESENTS THE BUYER:
The broker becomes the buyer’s agent by entering into an agreement to
represent the buyer, usually through a written buyer representation agreement.
A buyer’s agent can assist the owner but does not represent the owner and
must place the interests of the buyer first. The owner should not tell a buyer’s
agent anything the owner would not want the buyer to know because a buyer’s
agent must disclose to the buyer any material information known to the agent.
IF THE BROKER ACTS AS AN INTERMEDIARY:
A broker may act as an intermediary between the parties if the broker complies

Senior Vice President,
Director of Brokerage

with The Texas Real Estate License Act. The broker must obtain the written
consent of each party to the transaction to act as an intermediary. The
written consent must state who will pay the broker and, in conspicuous bold
or underlined print, set forth the broker’s obligations as an intermediary. The
broker is required to treat each party honestly and fairly and to comply with
The Texas Real Estate License Act. A broker who acts as an intermediary
in a transaction: 1) shall treat all parties honestly; 2) may not disclose that
the owner will accept a price less than the asking price unless authorized in
writing to do so by the owner; 3) may not disclose that the buyer will pay a price
greater than the price submitted in a written offer unless authorized in writing to
do so by the buyer; and 4) may not disclose any confidential information or any
information that a party specifically instructs the broker in writing not to disclose
unless authorized in writing to disclose the information or required to do so
by The Texas Real Estate License Act or a court order or if the information
materially relates to the condition of the property.
With the parties’ consent, a broker acting as an intermediary between the
parties may appoint a person who is licensed under The Texas Real Estate
License Act and associated with the broker to communicate with and carry out
instructions of one party and another person who is licensed under that Act
and associated with the broker to communicate with and carry out instructions
of the other party.
If you choose to have a broker represent you,
you should enter into a written agreement with the broker that clearly establishes
the broker’s obligations and your obligations. The agreement should state how
and by whom the broker will be paid. You have the right to choose the type of
representation, if any, you wish to receive. Your payment of a fee to a broker
does not necessarily establish that the broker represents you. If you have any
questions regarding the duties and responsibilities of the broker, you should
resolve those questions before proceeding.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF RECEIPT OF AGENCY DISCLOSURE FORM: I acknowledge I have received a copy of this form. I understand that agreements I may sign
may affect or change agency relationships and that the broker may only represent both the Owner/Landlord and the Buyer/Tenant with their full knowledge and consent.
