Start your licensing education with LEAP's Texas real estate pre-licensing course, designed to help you complete the required coursework online.

If you need to contact the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC), the fastest option is by phone at 512-936-3000. You can also email information@trec.texas.gov or mail correspondence to P.O. Box 12188, Austin, TX 78711-2188.

TREC is the main source for questions about Texas real estate licensing, including rules, education requirements, applications, and complaint procedures. If you are planning to become licensed, it is a good idea to confirm the current requirements directly with the commission before investing time or money.

This is especially helpful if you are unsure whether you qualify to apply. TREC can help clarify eligibility, background concerns, required coursework, and the next steps for the licensing exam.

Before reaching out, it can also help to review TREC’s published guidance and compare it with an approved pre-licensing course. For example, Leap Real Estate offers a Texas pre-licensing course here: https://leaprealestate.com/state-licenses/texas-pre-licensing.

If you contact TREC about a specific issue, have your details ready, such as your name, contact information, and any application or course records. This makes it easier for staff to direct you to the right form, department, or process.

Because licensing rules can change, always verify the latest information with TREC before submitting an application. For many prospective agents, the key point is simple: TREC is the official authority for Texas real estate licensing information.
