In this episode you will learn: - A standard Texas real estate license is valid for a two-year term. - For most renewals, 18 hours of Continuing Education (CE) are required, which must include the 4-hour Legal Update I and 4-hour Legal Update II courses. - The first license renewal is a major exception, requiring 90 hours of Sales Apprentice Education (SAE) plus the two Legal Update courses. - Missing the renewal deadline results in an expired, inactive license, with a six-month grace period for late renewal before reinstatement is required. - A common exam trap is confusing the 90-hour SAE requirement for new agents with the 18-hour CE requirement for subsequent renewals.
