- Q. Vacation Rental Management without real estate license in Florida?
- A: Yes, you generally need a real estate license from FREC to manage other peoples property and make a commission. There are a few exceptions, I would need more information to see if they apply.
- Q. Dealer won’t give me refund of my down payment even though I never took possession of the car
- A: It depends on whether there was a written contract and what the terms of the contract were. Sometimes, contracts have a "liquidated damages" provision wherein if there is a breach the non breaching party is entitled to the deposit. If there is no liquidated damages, you may be entitled to your money back.
- Q. I sold my camper van to a guy in south Carolina and I live in Florida. He canceled his check. What can I do
