What is the renewal fee when a Texas license has been expired for 91 days to six months?

When a Texas real estate license has been expired for more than 90 days but less than six months, the renewal fee is set at double the regular renewal fee. This policy is in place to encourage timely renewal of licenses and to maintain the integrity of the licensing process within the real estate industry.

If a licensee allows their license to expire for more than 90 days, the increased fee serves as a deterrent against procrastination while ensuring that individuals remain aware of their legal obligations to keep their licenses current. A renewal fee that is higher than the standard rate reflects the increased administrative burden and the need to ensure that those who are practicing in the field meet the necessary standards and continuing education requirements.

This structure helps maintain the quality and professionalism of licensed real estate practices, making it essential for licensees to stay proactive about their licensing status.
