A Florida real estate brokers license

Along with a broker’s license as pointed out by other posters, you’ll probably need one or more business licenses to start your business. These generally are not granted for businesses operating out of a residence so you’ll need a business premises as well. That could be as little as a cheap storefront in a strip mall off the major throrouhgfares but keep in mind that in the real estate business, appearances are critical. A business presence in a shady neighborhood could attract clientele that you may not wish to deal with.

As far as credit is concerned, be prepared to provide personal guarantees for any loans taken out by the business for several years until you build up a favorable D&B rating. Business loans are risky and loans to new businesses are the riskiest of the risky. If you don’t have solid credit yourself, don’t expect to get any financial backing for the business through loans.
