1. For the Sales Agent License, what courses do I need, how much do they cost and can I take them online?
The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) requires all who desire a Texas Real Estate sales license to take qualifying education courses from an authorized provider. Austin Community College is an authorized provider of these courses, which are also college credit courses and all are offered online each Fall, Spring and Summer semester. Visit ACC Course Schedule, select the desired semester and Real Estate as the discipline.
