I just passed my Florida real estate exam, now what?
If you pass your state exam, you will receive an official photo-bearing exam result report immediately following completion of your test. You should verify that the information is correct on the exam results before leaving the test center. Pearson VUE will download your passing grade information to the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation system, which will then issue your real estate license number. You can expect your license to be issued, in inactive status, within 7 to 10 business days of passing the exam.
An active license will be issued when you submit the licensing information for your supervising broker to the Florida Real Estate Commission. Your new broker will need to sign your license activation application. Once this form has been submitted you will be ready to legally perform real estate services in Florida. Your license will remain in inactive status and you will not be able to practice real estate until you submit your signed license activation application.
