Under TRELA, a license holder who fails to disclose a known latent defect in a property to the buyer may face which consequence?

Correct Answer

C) Disciplinary action by TREC for failure to disclose material facts, which may include suspension or revocation of the license

Under Texas Occupations Code §1101.652, failure to disclose known material facts, including latent defects, is grounds for TREC disciplinary action. TREC can impose suspension, revocation, fines, and other penalties.

Answer Options
A
No consequence, because latent defects are the responsibility of the property inspector, not the license holder
B
A $100 fine payable to the buyer as a disclosure penalty
C
Disciplinary action by TREC for failure to disclose material facts, which may include suspension or revocation of the license
D
Only civil liability to the buyer; TREC has no authority over property defect disclosures
