One out of 70 is a realtor down here.

Those are the ones with a license. For every one of them, there are
about 5 to 10 working under their supervision. And then there are the
mortgage brokers, the title companies, the home inspectors, the
speculator/investors, etc.


My 32 year old nephew moved to Florida three years ago (recently sold and
move back north).
He worked in MA as a "handy man" type sub to building contractors, filling
in on jobs when labor was short.
He held no contractor's license.

When he moved to Florida he applied for and received a license (paid a small
fee) to set up a business as a certified and licensed home inspector.
