A Florida real estate broker is in the business of brokering real estate transactions; that is, finding sellers for those who want to buy real estate and finding buyers for those trying to sell real estate. Florida real estate brokers and their salespersons assist sellers in marketing their property and selling it for the highest possible price under the best terms and assist buyers by helping them purchase property for the best possible price under the best terms. In Florida, a person is required to have a license in order to be remunerated for services rendered as a real estate broker. When a person first becomes licensed to become a Florida real estate agent, the person obtains a real estate saleperson's license from the state in which the person will practice. To become a Florida real estate salesperson, the candidate must pass some specific coursework and then pass a state exam on real estate sales. Then in order to work legally, these salespersons must be associated with (and act under the authority of) a Florida real estate broker. Many states also have reciprocal agreements with specific other states, allowing a licensed individual from a qualified other state to take the second state's exam without completing the course requirements.
Florida real estate, in broad definition, land and everything made permanently a part thereof, and the nature and extent of one's interest therein. In law, the word real, as it relates to property, means land as distinguished from personal property; and estate is defined as the interest one has in property. Florida real estate may be acquired, owned, and conveyed (or transferred) by individuals; business corporations; charitable, religious, educational, fraternal, and various other nonprofit corporations; fiduciaries, such as trustees and executors; partnerships; and generally by any legal entity as determined and defined by the laws of Florida. Limitations are established in connection with sales of Florida real estate by minors, incompetents, and certain types of corporations, and generally in cases involving some form of legal disability or lack of capacity. In such instances, it is necessary in Florida to make application to the courts for permission to sell; in some jurisdictions such transfers are governed by statute. |

Florida real property is generally acquired by purchase, by descent and devise, or by gift. When acquired by purchase, a Florida deed is given by the seller, or grantor, to the purchaser, or grantee. The deed contains a legal description of the property conveyed; it must be drawn, executed, and acknowledged in proper form to be entitled to record. It is customary for the seller and the purchaser to enter into a contract, at which time the purchaser makes a deposit on account of the purchase price. The purchaser engages an attorney or a Florida title company to search the title to the property. The title company ensures that the seller can convey clear title. The transaction is then closed; that is, the property title is transferred and the balance of the purchase price is paid. The greatest and most extensive interest that may be acquired in Florida realty is described in law as a fee interest, a term that implies a proprietary ownership, free and clear of conditions. Fee interest is the most common form of ownership; with certain exceptions, private homes, apartment buildings, factories, office buildings, and similar properties are owned in fee.
