ExactCircle

Texas

Buyer agreement tracking built for Texas agents.

TREC requires written buyer representation agreements with definite termination dates. ExactCircle tracks every agreement, reminds you before they expire, and keeps a complete audit trail — so you protect commissions and stay compliant with both TREC and the NAR settlement.

Why Texas agents can't afford to wing it.

Texas was already one of the strictest states for buyer representation. The NAR settlement made it even more critical to have your agreements organized and accessible.

TREC agreements have hard expiry dates

Texas buyer rep agreements must include a definite termination date. When that date passes unnoticed, you lose exclusive representation — and the commission that comes with it.

Post-NAR settlement raised the bar

Since August 2024, written buyer agreements are required before showing property. TREC was already strict — now federal rules add a second layer of compliance your broker will audit.

Brokers want proof, fast

When your managing broker asks for every active agreement and its status, the answer shouldn't take 45 minutes in Gmail. ExactCircle makes it a 10-second export.
