TAR Lease agreement vs. CJM 186253v.6

[Mike Davidson]

So the lease agreement that the realtors use seems better but it looks like I cannot use it because it has the following text on top of the form:

"USE OF THIS FORM BY PERSONS WHO ARE NOT MEMBERS OF THE TEXAS ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® IS NOT AUTHORIZED"

I fired my property management company who was also a realtor shop. They used this form. As I am drawing up my first lease now, and since I am using "CJM 186253v.6", I am finding differences between the new lease and the what was on the original. 

My question is, how strictly is this followed? Can I really not use the TAR version of the agreement?
