Keeping Your Real Estate Licenses Active
To maintain your real estate license, Associates must renew the license within an 18 month period, and every 2 years thereafter. If renewing for the first time, Associates must complete the state approved 45-hour Sales Associate Post-License Course in a classroom setting and pass the end-of-course exam. The course must be completed before signing and mailing the state affirmation. When renewing for a second or subsequent times, a continuing education class must be completed.

In order to reactivate a license, the State of Florida requires that Sales Associates must attend specific portions of the Sales Associate Licenses Course. A specific schedule is designed to meet these requirements.
