Most of the time, this just results in biting...

How an Agent Under Your Supervision Could Cause You to Lose Your Real Estate Broker’s License

A real estate broker in the state of Texas has done a great deal of work to not only be licensed to buy or sell real estate on behalf of clients, but to own their own firm that is worked by other licensees.
