Forming a brokerage entity in Texas? You need a Designated Broker on file with TREC. THRED Realty takes that role for vetted LLCs — entity sponsorship, contract oversight, and E&O coverage extension under Boris Artiga's license.
In Texas, an LLC that wants to operate as a brokerage must designate a licensed broker as its Designated Broker — the broker who's legally responsible for the LLC's compliance with TREC rules. You own the LLC and run the day-to-day; the Designated Broker is the broker-of-record on the entity's TREC license. Common path for agents forming their own LLC who don't yet qualify for a broker license themselves.
Bespoke per engagement — this is a hands-on broker relationship, not a self-serve plan.
We file as the Designated Broker on your LLC's TREC entity license. Annual renewals coordinated. Your LLC operates legally as a Texas brokerage from day one.
Sign-off on listing agreements, contracts, and disclosures your LLC's agents submit. Advertising-rule review. Escrow handling guidance. TREC complaint response if anything ever lands.
Your LLC operates under our errors-&-omissions umbrella, with a per-entity endorsement. No separate policy to source on day one (you'll carry your own as you scale).
This is a high-trust relationship — our broker license is on the line for your LLC's compliance. We're selective.
You've registered the entity with the Texas Secretary of State and have an EIN. We don't form the LLC for you; we sponsor it once it exists.
General liability + E&O at minimum. We extend our E&O as an umbrella, but your LLC carries its own policy too.
No open or recent TREC complaints against you personally. Genuine intent to operate as a brokerage, not a license-parking arrangement.
Setup, monthly retainer, and any per-transaction terms get scoped to your LLC's size and shape. Drop us a note and we'll set up a call.
