Florida now recognizes experience in another state. Now there is no need to travel to Florida and it is no longer necessary to be a Florida resident to hold a broker's license in this state.
You need to have had a Salesperson or Broker License in any state for two years within the last 5 years. Florida Sales Person Course can be done online.
You will also need a Certification of Licensure from the NY Dept. of State in order to apply for your Florida Broker license.
In the past it has taken between 2-8 weeks to get the Certificate from the Dept. of State, therefore we recommend you do this before you start the course. Here is the information from the DOS website for your convenience.
Certification of License History: Fees required for certifications of licensing history and certified copies must be submitted with the request.
