Q: I’m an active Florida sales associate. My lender has recently foreclosed its mortgage on my personal home. Is this an event that I’m required to self-report to the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR)? 

A: No. The self-reporting requirements under Chapter 455.227(1)(t), Florida Statutes, involve a licensee requirement of self-reporting where the licensee is convicted or found guilty of, or has entered a plea of nolo contendere, or guilty of, regardless of adjudication, a crime in any jurisdiction.
