Question 1 A six-acre tract includes a 65,340-square-foot drainage area that will not be part of the usable site. Using 43,560 square feet per acre, how many usable acres remain?

Answer choices

  1. A. 5.5 acres, after treating 65,340 square feet as one-half acre, as the selected approach for the stated technical and business outcome.
  2. B. 4.5 acres, after converting 65,340 square feet to 1.5 acres and subtracting it from six, as configured.
  3. C. 1.5 acres, because only the drainage area should be reported, under the stated decision criteria.
  4. D. 7.5 acres, after adding the drainage area instead of subtracting it, under the documented operational and governance requirements.

Correct answer

4.5 acres, after converting 65,340 square feet to 1.5 acres and subtracting it from six, as configured.

First convert the excluded area: 65,340 ÷ 43,560 = 1.5 acres. The question asks for usable acreage, so subtract that amount from the six-acre tract: 6 − 1.5 = 4.5 acres.

Wrong-answer review

  • A. 5.5 acres, after treating 65,340 square feet as one-half acre, as the selected approach for the stated technical and business outcome.: 65,340 square feet is 1.5 acres, not one-half acre.
  • C. 1.5 acres, because only the drainage area should be reported, under the stated decision criteria.: One and one-half acres is the excluded area, not the remaining usable area.
  • D. 7.5 acres, after adding the drainage area instead of subtracting it, under the documented operational and governance requirements.: The drainage area is removed from the usable site, so adding it reverses the required operation.

Extra learning features

Why candidates miss this

The candidate might make a calculation error or fail to correctly convert the drainage area to acres. The decisive clue is the use of the correct conversion factor (43,560 square feet per acre). (Source: Texas Real Estate Candidate Handbook, https://www.pearsonvue.com/content/dam/VUE/vue/en/documents/publications/094400.pdf) Likely wrong answer: 7.5 acres, after adding the drainage area instead of subtracting it Review focus: Texas Real Estate Candidate Handbook

Why this matters

This scenario tests a fundamental skill in real estate – calculating acreage and understanding how excluded areas impact usable land. Accurate calculations are essential for determining property value and potential development opportunities.

Question 2 In a sales-comparison analysis, a comparable property has a superior garage compared with the subject. How should the appraiser handle that feature when using the comparable to indicate subject value?

Answer choices

  1. A. Adjust the subject price upward because all changes are made to the subject, within the stated policy framework.
  2. B. Adjust the comparable's sale price downward for its superior garage, for the stated national: property value and appraisal requirement.
  3. C. Make no adjustment because relevant property differences are ignored, for the stated requirement.
  4. D. Replace the analysis with reproduction cost because one difference prevents comparison, in this situation.

Correct answer

Adjust the comparable's sale price downward for its superior garage, for the stated national: property value and appraisal requirement.

Question 3 A Phase I ESA identifies a recognized environmental condition. The purchaser now wants an assessment that collects and analyzes soil or groundwater samples to determine whether a release is present and its extent. Which assessment fits?

Answer choices

  1. A. A property-condition assessment focused on building systems, for the required business outcome.
  2. B. A second Phase I limited to records review and visual reconnaissance, within the described operational context.
  3. C. A Phase II ESA, under the described national: property disclosures and environmental issues criteria.
  4. D. A title examination for recorded ownership defects, for the affected environment.

Question 4 Two physically similar homes are in different areas, and buyers consistently pay more for the one in the preferred location. Which economic characteristic of land explains the value difference?

Answer choices

  1. A. Fee simple estate, for this task.
  2. B. Life estate, in practice.
  3. C. Remainder interest, within the stated policy framework.
  4. D. Situs, for the required operational result and control objective.

Question 5 A Texas broker authorizes a sponsored sales agent to conduct specified brokerage activities, then delegates day-to-day compliance assistance to an experienced associate without limiting or revoking the agent's authority in writing. Who retains overall responsibility?

Answer choices

  1. A. The client, because broker supervision ends when duties are delegated, as the primary implementation for the described business requirement.
  2. B. The experienced associate alone, because delegation transfers all supervisory responsibility, as the recommended implementation across the complete governed service lifecycle.
  3. C. The broker, because delegation does not relinquish responsibility for the authorized acts of sponsored agents, for this decision.
  4. D. The sales agent alone, because written authorization eliminates broker responsibility, within the stated policy framework.

Correct answer

The broker, because delegation does not relinquish responsibility for the authorized acts of sponsored agents, for this decision.

Question 6 A Texas sales-agent applicant has completed 150 classroom hours across qualifying courses and asks whether that satisfies the education requirement. Assuming all hours otherwise qualify, what remains?

  2. B. Thirty additional qualifying classroom hours to reach 180, for review.
  3. C. A broker license instead of any further education, for the stated scenario.
  4. D. Only fingerprints already filed with another state agency

Question 7 A Texas sales agent prepares a comparative market analysis for a listing appointment. The agent is not a licensed or certified appraiser. Which statement keeps the activity within TREC rules?

Answer choices

  1. A. The agent may present the CMA as an appraisal if it is based on recent comparable sales, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, for evaluation.
  2. B. The agent may prepare the CMA for the sponsoring broker, submit it in the broker's name, and avoid representing it as an appraisal, within the documented scope, ownership, and validation boundaries.
  3. C. The agent must send the CMA directly to TREC for approval before giving it to the seller, under the documented operational and governance requirements.
  4. D. The agent may sign the CMA independently because CMAs are outside broker responsibility, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, in context.

Correct answer

The agent may prepare the CMA for the sponsoring broker, submit it in the broker's name, and avoid representing it as an appraisal, within the documented scope, ownership, and validation boundaries.

Question 8 TREC receives a signed complaint alleging conduct within its jurisdiction and opens an investigation. Before any contested disciplinary authority is exercised against the license holder, the alleged grounds must be proved through the applicable process. Which statement is accurate?

Answer choices

  1. A. TREC lacks authority to investigate until a court first enters a judgment, under the organization’s defined implementation and exception-management process.
  2. B. TREC may investigate the signed complaint and may impose an authorized sanction if disciplinary grounds are proved, under organization-wide implementation-governance requirements.
  3. C. Signing the complaint automatically revokes the respondent's license without further process, within the texas: commission duties and powers context.
  4. D. TREC may investigate only unlicensed persons and never current license holders, under the documented operational and governance requirements.

Correct answer

TREC may investigate the signed complaint and may impose an authorized sanction if disciplinary grounds are proved, under organization-wide implementation-governance requirements.

Question 9 After the required notice, a residential tenant reports a broken heater that materially affects ordinary physical health or safety. The landlord proposes waiting until surrender and treating the complaint only as security-deposit accounting. Which response correctly distinguishes the duties?

Answer choices

  1. A. The landlord has no repair duty because heater problems are resolved only through deposit deductions, as the recommended implementation across the complete governed service lifecycle.
  2. B. The landlord may wait until surrender because health-or-safety conditions are never subject to a statutory repair duty, within the documented operational, security, ownership, and validation requirements.
  3. C. The landlord must refund the deposit immediately instead of addressing the reported condition, as the primary implementation for the described business requirement.
  4. D. The reported condition implicates the landlord’s statutory repair duty after notice; deposit refund or itemized accounting after surrender is a separate obligation, for review.

Correct answer

The reported condition implicates the landlord’s statutory repair duty after notice; deposit refund or itemized accounting after surrender is a separate obligation, for review.

Question 10 In February 2026, a listing-brokerage agent meets a buyer at the listing's open house, discloses representation of the owner, and does not sign a buyer agreement under the open-house exception. The next day, a different license holder begins working with that buyer and plans to show another residence. What must occur before that showing?

Answer choices

  1. A. Nothing, because one open-house visit permanently exempts the buyer from written agreements, for the described technical objective and its associated operational control requirements, as selected.
  2. B. The working license holder must enter the required written buyer agreement before showing the other residence, for the stated implementation and support requirements.
  3. C. Only IABS is needed because written buyer agreements begin after 2026, as the proposed design for the complete governed operational workflow.
  4. D. The license holder may wait until after presenting an offer even though a showing occurs first, for this scenario.

Correct answer

The working license holder must enter the required written buyer agreement before showing the other residence, for the stated implementation and support requirements.
