How to Renew Your Florida Real Estate License

Check Your License Expiration Date

Review your DBPR account and determine whether your renewal falls on March 31 or September 30.

Identify First or Later Renewal

First renewals require post-license education. Later renewals generally require 14 hours of continuing education.

Complete the Correct Education

Use the Education Pathways 14-hour package only when the standard CE requirement applies.

Renew Through DBPR

Log in to the DBPR online portal, verify your information, pay applicable fees, and finish renewal before the deadline.

First-Renewal Education Is Different

Before the initial expiration date, Florida sales associates generally need 45 hours of post-license education. Brokers and broker associates generally need 60 hours.

Important: Failure to complete required first-renewal post-license education by the expiration date can result in the license becoming null and void.

After the First Renewal
