Q: I obtained a real estate sales associate license almost 10 years ago; however, I haven’t engaged in much real estate brokerage activity. I decided not to renew my license at the end of my last renewal period, and therefore, my license is currently involuntarily inactive. How long may my license remain involuntarily inactive?
A: Two years. Section 475.183, Florida Statutes, provides that after two years of involuntarily inactive status, the license “shall automatically expire” and that once it expires, “it becomes null and void without further action by the commission or the department.”
