Texas REALTORS® is closely monitoring developments relating to the NAR settlement and its impact on litigation filed in Texas, which remains active at this time. This includes awaiting approval of the national settlement, which includes the state and local associations and REALTOR®-owned MLSs. “We are working to determine how the settlement will affect REALTORS® and real estate consumers in Texas, our policies, and our forms,” said Texas REALTORS® Chairman Jef Conn. “We have begun reviewing existing forms and have created a task force to gather member input on the potential need for new or revised forms. This is a significant development, and the process for acquiring court approval could extend over several months. During this time, we will continue our efforts so that we are ready to implement the necessary changes.”
