Florida Real Estate License Aspirants, Students, and Candidates’ Dropout: A Qualitative Analysis

Abstract

Real Estate is an industry playing a vital role in Florida’s economy, thus generating a substantial amount of interest in the general population. Obtaining a Florida Real Estate license it is not an easy task though. The object of the present investigation is to outline the local licensing process and discuss the different routes that lead aspirants to drop out from the licensing system without earning their personal objective. Despite the low pass rates at the state licensure exam it could be argued that non-academic factors may have even a more significant impact on the ultimate fate of Florida Real Estate license aspirants. Further research is needed to clarify the relative proportions of each separate dropout path because of the fragmentary nature of the information currently available.
