Dear Friends,

One of the best things about our Department is that it is so unique and covers so many professionals and businesses that are crucial to the success of our state’s economy. Our job is to be partners with those that we regulate and any time we see positive news about those industries, we are excited and we want to celebrate with them.

Recently, we have seen various news stories forecasting an uptick in the real estate industry and the construction industry throughout 2013 in our state. As we all know, the real estate and construction industries employ thousands across Florida and have an impact on nearly all of us. As two of the largest professions that fall under DBPR, we couldn’t be happier at the predictions that say they are on their way to recovery because a strong recovery means more jobs and a successful economy in our state. We will continue to do our part to cheer them on as the predictions come to fruition, and look forward to even more positive news in the future!

Sincerely,

Ken Lawson
Secretary
