FREC term of office

• A. Appointed for 4-year terms, no more than 2 consecutive terms, but no limit to non-consecutive
• B. Six-year terms with no limits
• C. Four-year terms with unlimited consecutive terms
• D. Two-year terms with no term limits

Answer: (A)

The question tests how long a Florida Real Estate Commission (FREC) member serves and whether there are term limits. In Florida, FREC members are appointed by the Governor and confirmed by the Senate. They serve five-year terms and may not serve more than two consecutive terms. After two consecutive terms, a term must lapse before they can be reappointed, though they can return after a break. This arrangement balances experience with turnover, ensuring fresh perspectives over time. The other term lengths listed—four years, six years, or two years—do not reflect the actual five-year term and the limit on consecutive service.
