What can happen if a person repeatedly violates the License Act?

A person who repeatedly violates the License Act can face serious consequences, including the revocation or suspension of their real estate license. The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) has the authority to enforce the provisions of the License Act to maintain professional standards and protect the public. When violations occur, especially if they are recurrent, TREC is likely to view this as a significant breach of professional ethics or legal responsibility, warranting harsher penalties such as suspension or revocation. Such actions serve as a deterrent and uphold the integrity of the real estate profession in Texas.

While other options may suggest possible actions that TREC could take in certain circumstances, they do not address the specific consequence of repeated violations in a direct and serious manner. For example, receiving a warning letter might happen after a first infraction, and mandatory training could be a corrective measure, but these do not specifically apply to the context of repeated violations, which escalates the need for enforceable actions like revocation or suspension.
