New Reporting Requirement for Criminal Convictions

During the 2009 Legislative Session, the Florida Legislature passed House Bill 425, which became law on October 1, 2009. Beginning October 1, 2009, House Bill 425 requires all licensees to report to the department within 30 days of being convicted or found guilty of, or having plead nolo contendere or guilty to a crime in any jurisdiction. House Bill 425 also requires that any conviction prior to October 1, 2009 be reported by November 1, 2009. A licensee who fails to report that information, may be subject to disciplinary action, including fines, suspension or license revocation. To report this information, complete the criminal self-reporting document and mail to the department as provided on the form.

For more info please visit Florida Dept. of Business & Professional Regulation website.

Buying or Selling a Home?

It pays to work with a REALTOR!

Only real estate professionals who are members of the National Association of REALTORS can call themselves REALTORS.  All REALTORS adhere to NAR's strict code of ethics, which is based on professionalism and protection of the public. That's why all real estate licensees are NOT the same. 

Look for the REALTOR logo when choosing a real estate agent.
