To schedule an examination or for more information, please click here . IMPORTANT ADVISORY: Section 442 of the Real Property Law previously prohibited a real estate broker from paying any part of a commission to an unlicensed person, firm, corporation or LLC if the payment was intended as compensation for a service that would require a real estate license. Accordingly, the amendment of August 10, 2004 , permits a real estate broker to pay the commission earned by a licensed associate broker or salesperson to an unlicensed corporation or unlicensed LLC , if each of the shareholders of the corporation or each member of the LLC, is an individual who is licensed and properly associated with the real estate broker as a licensed associate broker or salesperson. This amendment does not entitle the associate real estate broker or real estate salesperson to be licensed or to advertise in the name of the corporation or LLC, nor will the records maintained by Department of State, Division of Licensing, reflect the name of the corporation or LLC. A licensee may NOT use the name of the corporation or LLC on business cards.

A copy of the CIB can be downloaded from the PSI web site at http://www.psiexams.com . Please DO NOT attempt to register for the exam without first receiving notification from our office.

Applicants and inactive salespersons are not authorized to act as real estate agents. While you are not required to have a sponsoring broker to file an application for a license, a sponsorship request form is included with the application materials. If you wish, you may file the sponsorship request along with the application. Once all licensing requirements have been satisfied, TREC will send an active salesperson license to the broker, and you may act for the broker on receipt of the license. You may also file the application and arrange for sponsorship after TREC notifies you that you have been issued an inactive license. Once a broker holding an active license has mailed a request to TREC to act as your sponsor, you may begin to act for the broker as a salesperson. The time involved in processing an application depends on work volume. Inquiry as to thestatus of an application delays processing work. Inquiry should not be made unless there isreason to believe that information submitted to the Commission has not been received. An incomplete application will not be returned for completion. A letter will be mailed requesting the incomplete information. The examination must be passed within six months from the date the application is filed with the commission office. You are not authorized to perform any act for which a real estate license is required until an ACTIVE Texas Real Estate Commission license is in the possession of your sponsoring broker.

Reverse Mortgages Reverse Mortgages have many benefits for older home owners. Financial Glossary It's important to understand the language of finance. Common Mistakes to Avoid Common home buying mistakes can be avoided, you need to know what some of them are. search Denver Real Estate Site How to qualify for a mortgage A brief summary on how to get a home loan When a mortgage lender takes your application they are checking your ability and willingness to repay. It is said that "history repeats itself". Lenders look at your history to predict the future. This process can go as quickly as 24 hours or take several weeks. This is done by checking the following items: Your credit history (the past 2 years) Your checking account (bounced checks are not good) Your income Your FICO score (on conventional loans) Almost everyone who has some sort of credit, some money set aside for a down payment and an income can get a loan. Now whether or not you want that loan may be a different story. Mortgage rates are proportional to the amount of risk the lender must take. If the credit history is bad, the risk will be off set by a higher interest rate. The best way to qualify for a mortgage that you want is to have a nice clean credit report, little debt and pay all your bills on time, every time. Excessive consumer debt as in multiple credit cards lowers your FICO score . A hint to avoid this happening is to consolidate your debt on one charge card. Even if you have excellent credit it is a good idea to pull a credit report on yourself, prior to visiting the lender. In Colorado you are allowed to do this free of charge once a year. (If you aren't in Colorado or any of the "free" states, then you can pay a small fee to obtain a copy of your credit report.) There are more than one credit reporting companies and not all companies report to all credit bureaus, so be sure to request a credit report from all, just to be sure. Here is how to contact the credit reporting agencies: Equifax Equifax Information Service Center P.O. Box 740241 Atlanta, GA 30374-0241 1-800-997-2493 You can also order your credit report from a secure section of the Equifax website at http://www.equifax.com Experian Experian National Consumer Assistance Center P,O, Box 2104 Allen, TX 75013-2104 1-888-397-3742 You can print a credit report order from at http://www.experian.com Trans Union Corporation, Consumer Disclosure Center P,.O. Box 390 Springfield, PA 19064-0390 1-800-888-4213 You can order a credit report online from Trans Union's website at http://www.transunion.com Be Pro-active... By reviewing your credit report prior to visiting a lender, you will be able to straighten out any errors or disputed items and avoid any troublesome holdups down the road. If you see a disputed item, an error made by a faulty social security number, a name similar to yours, or a court ordered judgment you paid off that hasn't been cleared from the public records, clear it off now. By writing to the credit reporting agency, you can have them remove the items and save you time and aggravation later. TIP: Make sure any outdated derogatory entries are deleted from your credit file. By outdated, anything over 7 years should be deleted (except bankruptcy which is 10 years). TIP: Officially cancel inactive credit cards Even if you don't use a credit card, some lenders will assume that credit limit is available to you and use it in qualifying you. Therefore, if you don't use it and don't need it, cancel it. Too many credit cards even with no balance can keep you from getting a loan. TIP: Hold off on making any major purchases until after you close on the loan. Many times people obtain a loan commitment then go out and charge a new car or a houseful of furniture, only to totally destroy the ratios on their loan commitment. If you find you need assistance with any of these strategies, it's OK to sit down and talk with a lender. Explain your situation and what you are trying to do. A good lender will help you structure your finances, credit report and budget, keeping your best interest in mind. Continue to How Much of a Down Payment? .
