Florida referral basics

What is a referral-only brokerage in Florida?

Simple: you place your active Florida license with a brokerage, refer the people you already know, and get paid when they close. No listings, no showings, no MLS dues. It's fully legal in Florida as long as your license stays active.

Who this is for

This is for you if…

If one of these is you, referral-only is the smart move.

✓

You're retired but want your license still earning.

✓

You have a full-time career outside real estate.

✓

You're relocating and don't want to lose your license.

✓

You're newly licensed and not ready to sell full-time.

✓

You're done paying Board + MLS dues for nothing.

✓

You just want referral income from people you already know.

What you earn

Your license, idle vs. earning.

An inactive license earns nothing and still costs you every year. With Aari, that same license earns referral income for almost no work.

The reality: your license sits inactive while you keep paying to hold it. Your friends, family, and past clients refer to someone else.

Example for illustration only. Commissions are negotiable and set per transaction; referral fees and your actual income will vary. Not a guarantee of earnings. Referral compensation is earned only after the fee is received and "kept" (30-day safe harbor) and you are in Good Standing. You must keep an active Florida license and complete required CE.

The Aari difference
Not the cheapest place to park your license. The one that protects it.
01

A broker, not a call center

A licensed Florida broker personally oversees every placement. You're a name here, not a number in a thousand-agent network.

02

Compliance that guards your license

Broker-level review on every file, audit-ready. The license you spent years and money earning, protected.

03

Placement you'd stake your name on

Your client goes to a vetted Southwest Florida agent we actually know, never matched to a stranger across the country.

Yes, you keep 80%, not 90%. That difference funds the broker oversight and compliance that protect your license. About $1 a day, and one referral covers it for years.

Are there transaction fees on my payout? No. There are no transaction fees on referral payouts. Only the membership fees apply.

What if my referral goes to Aari Realty? You earn your 80% share only if a broker-to-broker referral fee is actually paid to Aari Referrals. You earn no portion of the transaction commission itself.

Just got licensed, can I join? Yes. Newly licensed Florida agents are welcome, as long as you meet licensing and Good Standing requirements.

Do I need MLS or Realtor membership? No. Referral associates are referral-only and don't need MLS access or REALTOR® membership.
