The Texas Real Estate Commission in November 2020 approved several changes to promulgated contract forms. The new and revised TREC forms—plus Texas REALTORS® forms updated to match the TREC changes—are listed below and are mandatory beginning April 1.
Any offer or counteroffer using one of the forms listed below should be made on the new version of the form if the effective date of the contract is after March 31, 2021. However, if the effective date of a contract is March 31, 2021 or earlier, the parties can continue to use the old version of the form even if the transactions closes after March 31, 2021. Members of Texas REALTORS® who have questions about which forms to use may call the Texas REALTORS® Legal Hotline.
The new and revised forms are now available in the Blank Forms section of 3588612.com and from all forms vendors.

Is there a redline version available that shows the changes?

I’m not seeing a redline or list of changes for the listing agreements and Relo Addendum at that link, only the final forms. Where is a redline or list of changes?
The new unimproved property contract does not have noninal consideration space. Where do you recommend I put, termination option: nominal consideration on unimproved property contract?
I wish ZioForm was already uploaded
Where would I find a fillable version of the latest forms? The static PDF versions need to be printed and hand written, or a PDF editor is needed to type in the fields. Both of which can be tedious to use.
Thank you in advance.
Authorized form-fill vendors except zipForm should have electronic versions of the forms available. The forms will be in zipForm by March 22.
The forms are now available in zipForm.
