    Local travel plan

    Choose the best appointment for Houston.

    Pearson's handbook lists five Houston addresses, plus Bellaire and Sugar Land. Compare the whole trip, not just mileage. Crossing the metro during peak traffic can matter more than choosing the site that looks closest on a map.

    Wait for TREC authorization

    TREC must review your application and education before Pearson VUE can schedule the Texas sales-agent examination.

    Search the live Pearson inventory

    Sign in to Pearson VUE, choose the Texas real estate program, and compare the centers and dates shown for your account.

    Confirm the exact address

    Use the address in your Pearson appointment confirmation. Handbook locations and schedules are reference points and can change.

    Plan for the 30-minute arrival rule

    Pearson instructs candidates to report 30 minutes before the appointment for identification and security procedures.

    Compare date, route, and recovery time

    A farther center can make sense if it offers a much earlier seat, but include traffic, parking, weather, and the return trip in the decision. Do not create exam-day stress to save a small amount of calendar time.

    Houston route checks

    What to check before choosing the appointment.

    The best center is the one you can reach calmly, on time, with the exact confirmation and identification Pearson requires.

    Local check 1
    Choose the right side of the region

    Start with your side of the metro. A north Houston candidate should compare Torrey Chase and North Gessner before assuming a central address is easier.

    Local check 2
    Test the route at appointment time

    Check the building and suite, not only the street. Several published Houston sites are inside multi-tenant office buildings where parking and elevator time belong in your arrival plan.

    Local check 3
    Keep the confirmation in control

    Review traffic and weather on exam morning, then keep the 30-minute check-in buffer intact. A long Houston route needs more margin than a normal commute.
