Agents who include a list of recently sold homes in advertising must make it clear whether they had any role in the sale of those homes.

事实. Failure to accurately label and disclose which home sales an agent was actually involved in may create a 误导 impression, which is illegal under Texas law. 每TREC, an advertisement must clearly note which homes the agent was involved in the sale of or indicate the agent was not involved in any of the sales. An ad is 误导 if the average person could reasonably infer agent involvement in a sale where there is none.

The NAR 道德守则 goes a bit further and states that only REALTORS® who participated in the transaction may claim to have “sold” the property.

Keep in mind that brokers are responsible for ensuring that their sponsored agents’ advertising complies with TREC’s advertising rules.
