Real estate license in Florida, lives in Georgia

[Sylvia Herman]

Good morning everyone,

I am thinking about getting a real estate license in Florida, where my property is. If I sell or buy something else, I could do it myself. I could also sell other properties now and then, as a part time job. I am interested in learning more about the business and as an engineer, this will be something completely different and challenging.

Is this a good idea, since I still live in Georgia? Planning to maybe move to Florida in the years to come...We will travel now and then and could match the trips with some realtor activities...

Thanks.

Georgia and Florida have what is called reciprocity for licensing.   The forms and criteria can be found on the GREC website.   Pretty straight forward and easily accomplished.  

Good Luck!
