Talking Points from the September, 2015 Florida Real Estate Commission Meeting

Talking Points at the Florida Real Estate Commission Meeting with The Climer School of Real Estate

Areas of Focus at the September 2015 Florida Real Estate Commission Monthly Meeting with The Climer School, the Best Real Estate License School in Florida.

The Climer School of Real Estate is the Best Real Estate School in Florida

Every single month, the Florida Real Estate Commission meets for two days at 400 West Robinson, North Tower, 9th Floor. They are the most powerful body within the Florida Real Estate Community and Industry. 

For most of Tuesday, they discuss topical and relevant issues that are of great concern and importance to them. Pam Matera and I (Andy Brown, the Best Real Estate Instructor in Florida and Head Instructor) have been attending every Tuesday session, at least as much as possible, since we took over The Climer School of Real Estate. The information that we glean is amazing. 

So… while I don’t know why I hadn’t thought of this before now, every month I will be blogging on the recent meeting letting you know what is on the minds’ of the 7 Commissioners and what may or will be coming up that will be affecting you in the foreseeable future. 

Teams 

The Commission is receiving a lot of complaints from the general public that when someone calls a ‘team’, they have no idea who they are working with. I promise you, if the public does not know or clearly understand who the individual agent is that they are working with, that is a problem with the Commissioners. 

 Another topic that was discussed is that the Team’s name is so prominently featured while the Brokerage is in the smallest font available, tucked away and hidden. It was mentioned that one possible solution is to make the font for the Brokerage the same as for the Team name. 

Sales Associates acting as Property Managers and Rental Agents 

You have no idea how many Sales Associates are doing this. They are taking fees for finding a tenant in their own names. They are taking advanced rents and security deposits in their own name and depositing them in their own escrow accounts. 

Clearly, they are complete idiots and did not go to The Climer School of Real Estate or they would have known that this is one of the biggest no-no’s a sales associate can possibly do. Every single penny that a Sales Associate takes, makes, or receives is in the name of their Brokerage and Broker. 

Moral Turpitude with No Evidence of Character 

This one always blows us away. Individuals who have been caught in a crime involving Moral Turpitude, either as a licensee or prior to and now they are requesting a license. 

Sex or inappropriate behavior with an under aged person is as close to a guaranteed revocation or denial as you can get. Often the back stories behind the charges disgust the Commissioners as I agree they should. They even make comments such as “We don’t want someone like this showing families around houses.” 

Individuals who are caught stealing items from houses are also pretty much guaranteed of not getting a license. The reasons should be obvious.

On many cases, as the Commissioners are reviewing the case file, they note that there is also no 'Evidence of Character' in the file. This is important to them and their decision. 

Are Franchises Businesses and Business Opportunities? 

The Commission was petitioned to make a Declaratory Statement regarding whether selling Franchises requires a Real Estate license. Does a Franchise fall under the Florida Statutes definition of a Business or a Business Opportunity? 

Both of these require a Real Estate license. Right now it seems as if it does but even the Commission’s legal counsel was not sure. This even brought up questions and discussions about MLM’s. 

 The Commission asked the Division of Real Estate Executive Director to discuss this with the Governor’s office as well as the Attorney General and the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. They feel that something is there but they are not inclined to make a decision without much more knowledge. 

Rhode Island and Missouri as Reciprocity States 

At the moment, there is no reciprocity in Florida with any other states. They have been in discussion for a while with Missouri and now Rhode Island has requested the same. If this is ever approved, it will not be for months. Remember, reciprocity is not mutual recognition. This would be very cool. I can tell you that I will be getting a real estate license in any state that we have reciprocity with! 

Real Estate Schools doing Illegal Activities 

I had a chance to have some discussion with one of the Commissioners at the conclusion of the meeting. Apparently and allegedly there are a couple of real estate schools in the central Florida area that are well known to the Commission for doing illegal activities. 

One of them, apparently and allegedly is not requiring their sales associate pre license students to take 63 hours which is the statutory and rule requirement. Another one has developed a reputation for selling Post 45 Pass Certificates without actually having attended a Post 45 class or done anything at all. They know about YOU! 

If these illegal activities are in fact going on, I hope these schools are shut down and fast. I hope you enjoyed this recap. 

I will be writing a blog like this monthly and letting you know what your Florida Real Estate Commission is talking and thinking about that will affect you!

The August 2015 Florida DBPR Real Estate Exam Performance Summary And Pass Fail Rates

The August 2015 Florida DBPR Real Estate Exam Performance Summary And Pass Fail Rates

The August 2015 DBPR Real Estate Exam Monthly Pass Fail Rates from The Climer School of Real Estate, the Best Real Estate License School in central Florida.

The Department of Business and Professional Regulation and their state testing contractor vendor, Pearson Vue, have published their monthly Real Estate Exam Performance Summary. The month of August 2015 is pretty much like all the others. 

From August 1, 2015 through August 31, 2015, a total of 3,098 people took the Florida sales associate real estate exam for their first time. 1,652 passed and 1,446 failed. This is a pass rate of 53% and a fail rate of 47%. 

 2,813 people took their Florida sales associate real estate exam for a second or for a repeated time. A total of 983 passed and 1,830 failed and they had already taken and seen the exam at least once before. This is a pass rate of 35% and a fail rate of 65%. 

 Why are the Pass rates so low and the Fail rates so high? It is my personal belief that the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (the DBPR) want these Pass - Fail rates. The amount of data in the data pool is very important for statistical analysis and relevancy. 

The data base here is very high. Every single month, we have right around a 50% pass rate for those who are taking their sales associate pre-license exam for the first time. Month in and month out we have approximately a 34 to 35% pass rate for those who taking the exam again. 

In August 2015, only 250 people took their Florida Real Estate Broker exam for the first time. 152 of them passed and 98 of them failed. This is a pass rate of 61% and a fail rate of 39%. 

212 people took their Florida real estate broker exam for a second or for a repeated time. Only 73 of them passed and 139 of them failed. This is a pass rate of 34% and a fail rate of 66%. Again, this is about the same Pass - Fail percentage rate as usual. 

It's not the content and information that is so hard, it's that the way that the test and question makers word the questions. Many of the questions are very tricky. Often, it’s not what you know but rather can you beat the test makers at their own game. 

The Climer School of Real Estate is The Best Real Estate School in central Florida

Andy Brown, Head Instructor at the Climer School of Real Estate in Orlando, teaches his students that once you are sitting at your kiosk at your Pearson Vue testing center, your textbook knowledge is only half of the battle. Beating the question makers at their game is the other half. 

Andy Brown teaches his students his “Proprietary Tricks, Tips, and Techniques” to beat the state exam. This is actually one of the most important reasons why his students continually achieve such outstanding results. There are many other reasons why Andy Brown is considered the best real estate instructor in central Florida. 

By the way, the pass fail rates for individuals taking their Florida real estate instructors license exam are not much better. 

As an example in August 2015, 9 people took the instructors license exam for the first time. 4 people passed and 5 people failed. This is a pass rate of 44% and a fail rate of 56%. 

6 people took the Florida real estate instructors exam for a second or for a repeated time. 2 of them passed and 4 of them failed. This is a pass rate of 33% and a fail rate of 67%. 

Are you feeling ready to get your Florida real estate sales associate or broker’s license? Give yourself the best chance that you possibly can of passing the state exam on your first try. The way to do this is to take one of Andy Brown's classes at the Climer School of Real Estate. 

Andy loves helping people pass the state exam. That's how he built his reputation and why his reputation is as good as it is. Let Andy Brown and The Climer School of Real Estate help you pass your state exam on your first try.

New "Up And Running In 30 Days!" Class at The Climer School of Real Estate

Get Up and Running in 30 Days with The Climer School of Real Estate

Learn how to Develop Business and Get Closings at The Climer School of Real Estate, the Best Real Estate License School in central Florida.


Up And Running In 30 Days!

The number one challenge facing new real estate agents is how to develop business that will close and earn them money. The Climer School of Real Estate has the class for you. It is our new “Up and Running in 30 Days!” Class. 

Our National High Performance Coach gives you 30 Days of personalized attention, mentoring, and training that you need to be successful in your first 30 days. When you are earning money, the real estate business is so much more fun, and that component is critical if you are going to stay around in this business. 

There are many areas involved in becoming a successful real estate agent. 

1. Your new daily schedule and routine
2. Daily disciplines
3. Generating new contact leads
4. Prospecting for appointments and new customers
5. Scripts to turn leads into new customers
6. Scheduling your time to work with sellers and buyers
7. Balancing your life so that you don’t burn out or ruin important relationships 8. Follow up on past customers 

Our National High Performance Coach is going to give you one on one attention in each of these areas for your first 30 days to show you and teach you how to develop yourself and your business. If you do exactly what he says, you should end your 30 day program with deals that will actually close in your pipeline. 

What better way to begin your new real estate career than with closing that pay you money in your very first month. Very few real estate agents can say that they did that. 

1. Your new daily schedule and routine. You know that you don’t just wake up with a real estate license and suddenly contracts are just magically flying onto your desk, right? It takes work, discipline and commitment. However, it can be done. Success leaves a lot of clues. Setting up your entire day, including when you wake up, is the first critical component to achieving and experiencing massive success. 

2. Daily Disciplines. There is a great many actions and behaviors that you need to do every single day on your way to success as a real estate agent. We help you with these. 

3. Generating new contact leads. After you talk to every single member of your family and best friends, what then? You must figure out a way to contact people that you do no know and who do not know you, and on a large scale. We teach you how to begin this process. 

4. Prospecting for appointments and new customers. There is also a discipline and a process to continually and with purpose, prospecting for appointments and new customers. We teach you the details and how to do it successfully. It still takes your commitment. Consistent results do not happen by accident. 

5. Scripts to turn leads into new customers. There are the right things to say and the wrong things to say. Most objections can be predicted. We teach you the beginning of your winning scripts and, how to internalize them. When you talk to a stranger, you need your words to flow, and sound and feel as though they are coming from a confident professional. 

6. Scheduling your time to work with sellers and buyers. In the beginning, you will be working with both sellers and buyers, and they each take quite a bit of time, depending on the expectation or the task at hand. Learning how to set your limited and valuable time is critical to your future success. You must be able to set boundaries, and be able say no as well as be able to say yes. 

7. Balancing your life so that you don’t burn out or ruin important relationships. It is possible to be very successful in real estate and not work 60, 80, or more hours a week. We want you to enjoy your life and be able to spend quality time with your family and friends as well. 

8. Follow up on past customers. The best source of business are your past happy customers. Most agents let these ones go. Most real estate customers can not remember the name of the agent they used even though they would have used them again. We teach you how to set up your systems for automatic follow up that will reap you huge rewards in the future. 

Most real estate licensees fail miserably in their first year, and then drop out. Let us help make you one of the positive and happy success stories. 

Get “Up and Running in 30 Days”.

The June 2015 Real Estate State Exam Pass Fail Performance Summary

The June 2015 Florida DBPR Real Estate Exam Pass Fail Rates

The June 2015 DBPR Real Estate Exam Monthly Pass Fail Rates from The Climer School of Real Estate, the Best Real Estate License School in Florida.

Pearson Vue and the DBPR have published the monthly real estate exam performance summary. The month of June 2015 is pretty much like all the others. 


From June 1, 2015 through June 30 2015, a total of 2,833 people took the Florida sales associate real estate exam for their first time. 1,519 passed and 1,314 failed. This is a pass rate of 54% and a fail rate of 46%. 

 2,677 people took their Florida sales associate real estate exam for a second or for a repeated time. A total of 942 passed and 1,735 failed. This is a pass rate of 35% and a fail rate of 65%. 

Why is this? and What is going on? I believe that the state of Florida and the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (the DBPR) want these pass fail rates. The data base is too high. Month in and month out we seem to have approximately a 50% pass rate. Month in and month out we have approximately a 34% pass rate for individuals who taken the exam more than once. 

 In June 2015, 194 people took their Florida real estate broker exam for the first time. 131 of them passed and 63 of them failed. This is a pass rate of 68% and a fail rate of 32%. 

 130 people took their Florida real estate broker exam for a second or for a repeated time. 46 of them passed and 84 of them failed. This is a pass rate of 35% and a fail rate of 65%. 

 Once again, this is about the same pass fail percentage rates as always. It's not that the content is difficult, it's that the way the state words the questions are so tricky. Andy Brown, Head Instructor at the Climer School of Real Estate in Orlando, teaches his students that once you are sitting at your kiosk at Pearson Vue in the testing center, the content that you know is only half of the battle. Beating the state exam test makers at their game is the other half. 

 Andy Brown teaches his students his proprietary “Tricks, Tips, and Techniques” to beat the state exam. And he and his students continually achieve outstanding results. There are many reasons why Andy Brown is considered the best real estate instructor in Florida. 

 And by the way, the pass fail rates for individuals taking their Florida real estate instructors license exam is not much better. As an example in June 2015, 5 people took the instructors license exam for the first time. 2 people passed and 3 people failed. 

This is a pass rate of 40% and a fail rate of 60%. 

5 people took the Florida real estate instructors exam for a second or for a repeated time. 3 of them passed and 2 of them failed. This is a pass rate of 60% and a fail rate of 40%. 

None of these tests are easy or guaranteed to pass.

 Are you thinking of getting your Florida real estate sales associate or broker’s license? If you are, then you owe it to yourself to give yourself the best chance possible of passing the state exam on your first try. The only way to do this is to take one of Andy Brown's classes at the Climer School of Real Estate. 

 Oddly enough, those individuals who are trying to get a Florida real state license through mutual recognition and you only have to take it easy on the Florida real estate laws and rules are doing a little bit better but that is better as I think they should be doing. I think at the very least these pass fail rates should be more like what the sales associate and meet broker exam pass fail rates reflect. That's just me. 

 I love helping people pass the state exam. That's how I built my reputation and why my reputation is as good as it is. Let me help you pass your state exam on your first try. Register online for one of my classes at www.ClimerRealEstateSchool.com or call us at the school at 407-822-3926. You will be so glad that you did.
