Florida broker-track questions

Every Freehold question shows why the right answer is right — and cites its source.

Before applying for a Florida broker license, an active sales associate must generally complete:

  1. 6 months of active experience and the 63-hour course
  2. 12 months of active experience and the 45-hour course
  3. 24 months of active experience and the 72-hour FREC Course II
  4. No experience requirement, only the 72-hour course
Show answer & explanation

24 months of active experience and the 72-hour FREC Course II — Florida requires 24 months of active experience as a licensed sales associate (within the preceding 5 years) plus completion of the 72-hour FREC Course II broker pre-licensing course.

A newly licensed Florida broker must complete a post-licensing requirement of:

  1. 60 hours (two 30-hour courses) before the first renewal
  2. 14 hours before the first renewal
  3. 45 hours before the first renewal
  4. No post-licensing education is required for brokers
Show answer & explanation

60 hours (two 30-hour courses) before the first renewal — Florida broker license holders must complete 60 hours of FREC-approved broker post-licensing education, delivered as two 30-hour courses, before their first renewal.

If a Florida broker does not complete the 60-hour broker post-licensing requirement by the first renewal deadline, the broker license:

  1. Remains fully active but is flagged for audit
  2. Becomes null and void with no grace period
  3. Automatically reverts to sales associate status
  4. Is suspended for 90 days only
Show answer & explanation

Becomes null and void with no grace period — As with the sales associate post-licensing requirement, Florida allows no grace period for the broker's 60-hour course; a missed deadline voids the license.

Florida's 24-month active-experience requirement for broker licensure must be satisfied:

  1. Within the 5 years immediately preceding the broker application
  2. At any point during the applicant's whole career, with no time limit
  3. Within the 10 years immediately preceding the broker application
  4. Only during the applicant's first year of licensure
Show answer & explanation

Within the 5 years immediately preceding the broker application — Florida requires the 24 months of active sales associate experience to fall within the 5 years immediately preceding the broker license application.
