Can Mark or other Keller Williams Realtors Give Legal Advice?
No we are not allowed to. You will see this in bold print on various contracts. We will advise you to the best of our ability but cannot provide legal advice. The Texas Real Estate Commission TREC who licenses our KW Realtors forbids all Texas real estate agents from providing legal advice and for good reasons. The good part is the standard TREC residential contract between home buyers and sellers is straightforward and written in a pretty clear understandable manner. You may wish to consult with a Texas real estate attorney to assist you in reviewing the offer – it is the most important document of the home sale. If you plan on having an attorney review an offer prior to acceptance, arrange this in advance to minimize unnecessary stress on both yourself and the home buyer.
