Question 1

Who is eligible to become a real estate agent in Florida?

Accepted Answer

To apply for a Florida real estate sales associate license, you must be at least 18 years old, have a high school diploma or equivalent, and have a U.S. Social Security number. You do not have to be a U.S. citizen or a Florida resident. You must also meet DBPR character requirements, submit fingerprints for a background check, complete a Florida-approved 63-hour pre-licensing course unless exempt, and pass the state exam.

Question 2

Why is Casa Academy so much cheaper than Gold Coast?

Accepted Answer

We are online-first with AI-powered tutoring and adaptive exam prep built in, with no brick-and-mortar classrooms or separate upsells for prep. Enroll during the founding cohort and you pay $79 total; we will not charge you another $149 later. Once 100 students enroll, the $149 price applies only to new students. You still get the same DBPR-approved 63-hour curriculum and a completion certificate.

Question 3

Can I trust a brand-new school?

Accepted Answer

Casa Academy is DBPR-licensed (same state approval as legacy schools), teaches the required Florida curriculum, and is featured in industry publications including HousingWire and The Real Deal. As a founding cohort student, you get a 24/7 AI tutor trained on Florida statutes and full exam prep at no extra cost, plus our Casa Commitment: a 7-day money-back refund.

Question 4

What if I do not pass the Florida state exam?

Accepted Answer

Your exam prep tools and AI tutor stay available so you can drill weak topics and retake practice exams, included at no extra cost while you prepare. We do not charge again for you to keep studying. When you are ready, schedule your retake through Pearson VUE.

Question 5

Is this state-approved and what does that mean for Florida?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Casa Academy provides the state-approved education required by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) for pre-licensing, post-licensing, and continuing education. After you complete the course and pass the in-app course final (70% for the 63-hour pre-license course), we issue a completion certificate you can use in your DBPR application. The separate Florida state exam at Pearson VUE requires 75% to pass. Our exam prep tool uses that same 75% bar. Casa Academy is an independent school and is not affiliated with DBPR.

Question 6

What devices work with Casa Academy?

Accepted Answer

Casa Academy works on modern phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. The course experience, including videos, quizzes, and the AI tutor, is optimized for mobile so you can study wherever you are.

Question 7

How many hours do I need for a Florida real estate license?

Accepted Answer

Pre-licensing: 63 hours
Post-licensing: 45 hours
Continuing education: 14 hours

These are the DBPR hour requirements by program. Sales associate applicants complete the 63-hour pre-licensing course before the state exam, then complete post-licensing and continuing education hours on later renewal cycles as required. Sources: DBPR sales associate checklist: https://www.myfloridalicense.com/CheckListDetail.asp?SID=&xactCode=1010&clientCode=2501&XACT_DEFN_ID=744

Question 8

How long does it take to complete the course?

Accepted Answer

Most students finish in 2-4 weeks with consistent study, but you can move at your own pace. The required hours can be spread across several months if needed, and we provide study planners to help you set a steady timeline.

Question 9

How much does the Florida pre-licensing course cost?

Accepted Answer

Current tuition is listed on this page and again at checkout before you pay. If you enroll and it is not the right fit, you can request a full refund within 7 days.

Question 10

Do I get exam prep with the course?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The pre-licensing program includes a 650-question exam bank, state-style practice tests, weak-topic drills, and AI tutor support to help you prepare for the Florida state exam.

Question 11

What happens if I fail the course exam or state exam?

Accepted Answer

If you do not pass the Casa Academy course final (70% for the 63-hour pre-license course), you can retake it. The Florida state exam at Pearson VUE is a separate test that requires 75% to pass. If you do not pass on your first attempt, schedule a retake through Pearson VUE. Your study tools and exam prep (75% practice bar) remain available so you can review before testing again.

Question 12

How does the AI use course content?

Accepted Answer

The AI tutor is grounded in Casa Academy course materials and official Florida resources. When you ask a question, it searches those sources and surfaces citations when available so you can see where guidance comes from. For licensing steps, always confirm details with DBPR or Pearson VUE.

Question 13

What support is available for the founding cohort?

Accepted Answer

Founding cohort participants get video lessons in the Casa Academy dashboard, unlimited exam prep, a guided study plan, and optional Spotify audio for reviewing the lessons, all included at no extra cost.

Question 14

How is this different from Gold Coast?

Accepted Answer

Gold Coast is another Florida real estate school. When comparing providers, focus on state approval, course format, study tools, and instructor access. Casa Academy is online-first with video lessons, exam prep tools, and AI tutor support, while other schools may emphasize in-person classes or different study formats.
