Two ways to lead. Both get you there.
Climbing to a broker license shouldn't mean drowning in unguided PDFs. You get an active Texas broker on speed dial for the brokerage law, the team-building strategy, and everything between you and your own firm.
TREC requires at least 4 years of active experience as a licensed Texas sales agent (or as an out-of-state broker) within the 5 years before you apply. Not there yet? Start with your Sales Agent license instead — you can come back for Broker once you qualify. See the full Agent vs. Broker comparison.
Is School Estate TREC-approved? Yes — QE Provider #4546QP.
Why the number matters less than the outcome.
You'll find broker programs that charge twice what we do, and programs that charge half. The number on its own won't tell you which one gets you to broker. What actually matters is what happens after you enroll: who actually logs into your account when you're stuck on advanced brokerage law, who's there the night before your exam, who picks up the phone.
Here, that someone is a personal mentor instructor, an active Texas broker with 25+ years in the field who logs into your account, sees exactly where you are, and answers when you call. That's the math worth doing before you enroll anywhere.
You need the hours fast. You'll also need someone who's done this before.
Self-paced video courses and daily live support mean you move as fast as you're able to, with no waiting on a classroom schedule.
Your mentor is an active Texas broker who's filed the TREC forms and sponsorships before. You'll know exactly what to submit, and when.
Beyond the license: guidance on structuring and launching your own firm, from someone who's actually run one.
Before you choose a package, hear from graduates.
"Blaise is truly awesome! He was ALWAYS available to help. I passed both exams on the first try."
"The support is hard to describe. I spoke with Blaise for an hour and a half on a Tuesday night, no joke."
"Completed my courses in 19 days & passed my exam on my 1st attempt."

The same six agent courses, plus Brokerage, plus two electives.
If you already hold a Texas sales agent license, you've completed the first 180 hours. The Broker Pack fills the rest: the mandatory Real Estate Brokerage course (must be completed no more than 2 years before you apply) and 60 hours across two electives. Both packages include the identical courses.
Four steps once your coursework and experience report are ready.
The same TREC portal you already use as an agent, no new account, no activation email.
Attach your course certificates and your BL-A / BL-B experience forms documenting your 720 points.
Card payment inside REALM. This covers the application itself, separate from course tuition.
TREC processes your file and emails your exam eligibility letter, fingerprints already on file from your agent license.
Once TREC clears your file, you schedule your Pearson VUE broker exam. For the full experience-point math and every step in order, see How to Become a Texas Real Estate Broker.
