Why do I need to have my license Active?

According to Florida State Chapter 475, to practice real estate in the state of Florida one must have a current and active real estate license.  In order for a real estate license to be active it must be listed under a broker.  If a license is not listed with a broker, it is considered inactive by the DBPR.

What is the penalty for practicing real estate with an inactive license?

Practicing real estate with an inactive license is committing a third degree felony.  This crime is punishable by up to five years in prison and up to a $5,000 fine.


What makes Skyway Real Estate Corp different from other real estate brokerages?

In a traditional setting a real estate brokerage is a member of a local board.  All boards require every agent associated with that firm to pay to become a member.  Skyway Real Estate Corp is different because we don't belong to any boards, therefore our agents are not forced to endure that expense. 

How do I know if I am a good candidate for Skyway Real Estate Corp?

Skyway Real Estate Corp has been a great solution for many agents.  We understand there are many ways someone can make money in real estate without actually working in a traditional fashion.   Listed below are just a few examples of how some are using their license through Skyway Real Estate Corp.

*  Referrals
* Commercial Real Estate
* People who are working primarily in a different career that lends itself to real estate leads. 
* Some just enjoy an inexpensive way to stay active just in case a real estate opportunity becomes available

There are many ways to work in real estate without needing the services of a local board.  Skyway Real Estate Corp was created with that in mind.

Can I refer to anyone I want?

Yes, you are free to refer to any real estate agent you would like.



Can I still write contracts even if I am not on the board?


Yes, as long as you have a valid active Florida real estate license you can write a contract.


Can I still use the MLS?

No, Skyway Real Estate Corp is not associated with any boards so any of its agents would not be permitted to join.

I live far away from your office. Can I still join?

Yes, that is one of the great advantages of joining. Because we do all of our business via email, fax, and phone, it doesn't matter where you live.  All that matters is having a valid current Florida real estate license.


Will I still have access to a Broker?

Yes, a Broker is available by email, fax, and phone.  Just call the office and a Broker will get back to you as soon as possible.


What  if my needs change and I need to join a board?

In order to be a member of a board, the company you work for has to be a member as well. Since Skyway Real Estate Corp is not a member of any boards, you would have to change companies.
