Broker Harrison sponsors three sales agents and two broker associates. Under TREC rules, which individuals is Harrison responsible for supervising?

Correct Answer

C) All five individuals, because the designated broker bears supervisory responsibility for all sponsored license holders

Under TREC Rule §535.2 and Texas Occupations Code §1101.803, the designated broker is responsible for supervising all sponsored license holders — including both sales agents and broker associates. Although broker associates hold broker-level licenses, when they are sponsored by another broker they operate under that broker's authority and supervision.

Answer Options
A
Only the three sales agents, because broker associates hold independent broker licenses and are exempt from designated broker supervision
B
Only the two broker associates, because they hold higher-level licenses and are better positioned to oversee the sales agents
C
All five individuals, because the designated broker bears supervisory responsibility for all sponsored license holders
D
All five individuals, but only for transactions — not for general conduct or policy compliance
