(a) Fees for the issuance of a license due to a change of address,
additional place of business or change of sponsoring broker are due when requests
for such licenses are received. A change of address or name submitted with
an application to renew a license, however, does not require payment of a
fee in addition to the fee for renewing the license. If the commission receives
a request for issuance of a license certificate which requires payment of
a fee, and the appropriate fee was not filed with the request, the commission
shall return the request and notify the person filing the request that the
person must pay the fee before the certificate will be issued. The commission
may require written proof of a licensee's right to use a different name prior
to issuing a license certificate reflecting a change of name. As used in this
section, the term '"license'" includes a certificate of registration.
(b) The commission shall charge and collect the following fees:
(1) a fee of $75 for the filing of an original application
for a real estate broker license;
(2) a fee of $30 for annual renewal of a real estate broker
license;
(3) a fee of $50 for the filing of an original application
for a real estate salesperson license;
(4) a fee of $30 for annual renewal of a real estate salesperson
license;
(5) a fee of $35 for an application for a license examination;
(6) a fee of $20 for filing a request for a license for each
additional office or place of business;
(7) a fee of $20 for filing a request for a license for a change
of place of business change of name, return to active status or change of
sponsoring broker;
(8) a fee of $20 for filing a request to replace a license
lost or destroyed;
(9) a fee of $400 for filing an application for accreditation
of an education program under Texas Civil Statutes, Article 6573a (the Act), §7(f);
(10) a fee of $200 a year for operation of a real estate education
program under the Act, §7(f);
(11) a fee of $20 for transcript evaluation;
(12) a fee of $10 for preparing a license history; and
(13) a fee of $25 for the filing of an application for a moral
character determination.
