Within how many days must a broker report a change of residency status to FREC?

• A. Change of address.
• B. Change of employer.
• C. Change of residency status.
• D. Change of license status.

Answer: (C)

When regulators track real estate professionals, they rely on timely updates about changes that could affect license status or authority to practice. A change in residency status is a key event that must be reported to the Florida Real Estate Commission, because where you live can influence your eligibility, taxation, and how your license is regulated. Reporting this change helps keep the Commission’s records accurate and ensures you remain in compliance with residency and licensure rules. While other changes (like address, employer, or license status) may also require notification, the important point here is that residency status change is the reportable event the Commission needs to be informed about within the established timeframe.
