Texas real estate license lookup with TREC.
The Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) runs a License Holder Search that covers real estate brokers and sales agents and several other licence types. This page explains it and links you to it.
Short answer: open TREC’s License Holder Search, enter a name or licence number, and choose the licence type. This page does not look anyone up.
What the TREC License Holder Search offers
TREC’s License Holder Search form takes a Name or License Number and a License Type. The licence types listed on the form are:
- Broker or Sales Agent
- Inspector
- Easement & Right of Way Agent
- Real Estate Appraiser
- Appraisal Management Company
- Education Provider
TREC’s site also has Disciplinary Actions and a How to File a Complaint section under Public Consumer Information.

Format

Guide only — not a verification tool
This page describes official registers and links to them. It does not check anyone’s licence status, does not copy or proxy any register, and nothing you might type here is transmitted anywhere. Registers change and licensing rules differ by state and city; use the official source linked above and contact the regulator to confirm anything that matters. This is general information, not legal advice.
