What must each licensed real estate broker in Texas display as required by the Texas Real Estate Commission?

Each licensed real estate broker in Texas is required to display a CN 1-2, which is a notice that emphasizes the broker’s duties and the relationship clients have with them. This form helps to ensure transparency between brokers and consumers, clarifying the roles and implications of agency relationships. By making this information readily available, brokers foster informed choices for clients and adhere to regulatory standards set forth by the Texas Real Estate Commission.

The other options do not serve the same regulatory purpose or requirement under Texas law. While a business license may be necessary in other contexts, it is not specifically mandated by the Texas Real Estate Commission for display. An agency agreement is a functional contract but is not required to be publicly displayed; it is a private agreement between the broker and the client. Similarly, a professional code may refer to ethical guidelines or standards, but it is not a document that must be displayed as mandated by the commission. Therefore, the CN 1-2 is the specific document linked directly to real estate practices that must be shown by brokers in Texas.
