I too was a Broker for 20 years, in Florida. Happily retired now!

Welcome aboard,
I have read the law and I personally know an agent who does not have a license. He works for the developer and only sells new lots and homes. He can not sell resale homes. When you read that law it is about selling real estate for a broker. One who takes listings from independent sellers. Working directly for a developer in Florida selling their homes you do not need a license. It's like selling your own home, you do not need one.
