Texas Promulgated Contracts Practice
1st Edition by Mettling, Mettling, & Hamilton
Texas Promulgated Contracts Practice is one of the five required books in Performance Programs Company's Texas real estate prelicense series. This course is designed to give Texas real estate license candidates a thorough working knowledge of the contracts, forms, and legal principles that govern residential real estate transactions in Texas.
This course treats contract law not as an abstract legal subject but as the practical core of professional real estate work in Texas. A licensee who cannot read a contract carefully, complete a form correctly, explain provisions clearly to clients, and recognize when something is wrong before it becomes a problem will not serve clients well, regardless of skill in every other dimension of practice. The text is organized into nine chapters that build understanding progressively, beginning with the legal principles and Texas regulatory framework that govern real estate contracts, moving through the promulgated forms that licensees use every day, and ending with a hands-on workshop in which you complete those forms from realistic transaction facts.
Topics include the origins of Texas real estate regulation, the essential elements and classifications of a valid contract, the Texas Real Estate License Act (TRELA) and TREC rules, the role of the Broker-Lawyer Committee, antitrust limits on broker conduct, and the line between permissible brokerage activity and the unauthorized practice of law. The heart of the course works through the One to Four Family Residential Contract (Form 20-19) paragraph by paragraph, along with its financing addenda, earnest money and termination option, title insurance, the survey, and the property condition and seller disclosure notices. The course also examines the five other promulgated sale contracts, the temporary residential leases, the addenda, amendment, and notice forms, the elements of fraud, the current broker compensation environment, and the federal Fair Housing Act.
The complete current set of TREC promulgated contracts, addenda, the amendment, and the related notices and disclosures is reproduced at the back of the book, so you can study and practice on the same documents you will use in daily practice.
