The purpose of this course is to provide a clear understanding of how the Texas
Legislature influences real estate. Several laws were passed in the 87th session related
to real estate transactions and the real estate profession. This course will inform real
estate professionals about recent legislation regarding private property rights, land use,
infrastructure, and other topics that directly impact real estate. Legislation related to
these issues will determine housing attainability, accessibility to goods and services,
schools, and possible tax consequences affecting real estate. Attendees will increase
their knowledge of timely issues facing real estate consumers and property owners.
