115STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE S

120The issues in this case are whether, and how, the Florida

131Real Estate Commission (FREC) should di scipline the Respondent,

140Theresia Helton, on charges that she: failed to account and

150deliver rental payments and deposits; was culpably negligent and

159in breach of trust in her dealings regarding rental property;

169failed to escrow rental payments and deposi ts; failed to properly

180reconcile her escrow account; and failed to make transaction

189agreements and bank statements available for inspection.

196PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

198The Petitioner, Department of Business and Professional

205Regulation, Division of Real Estate ( Division ) , filed an

215Administrative Complaint against the Respondent alleging: in

222Count I, that she failed to account and deliver rental payments

233and deposits, in violation of section 475.25(1)(d), Florida

2411 /

243Statut e s (2013) ; in Count II, that she was culpa bly negligent

256and in breach of trust in her dealings regarding the rental

267property, in violation of section 475.25(1)(b); in Count III,

276that she failed to escrow rental payments and deposits, in

286violation of section 475.25(1)(k); in Count IV, that the

295viol ations alleged in Count III also violated Florida

304Administrative Code Rule 61J2 - 10.010(1) and, therefore, section

313475.25(1)(e); in Count V, that she failed to properly reconcile

323her escrow account, in violation of rule 61J2 - 14.012(2) and,

334therefore, sectio n 475.25(1)(e); and, in Count VI, that she

344failed to make transaction agreements and bank statements

352reflecting deposits available to the Division ' s investigator, in

362violation of rule 61J2 - 14.012(1) and, therefore, section

371475.25(1)(e). The Respondent dis puted the charges and requested

380an administrative hearing. However, at the final hearing, the

389Respondent admitted the violations alleged in Counts III, IV,

398and V.

400At the hearing, Petitioner ' s Exhibits 1 through 14 were

411admitted in evidence, and the Peti tioner called the following

421witnesses: the Respondent; the owners/lessors, Ernest and Eileen

429Armitage; the Division ' s investigator, Richard Kerans; and the

439lessees, Laurie and James Ungar. The Respondent testified in her

449case, and Respondent ' s Exhibit 6 was admitted in evidence.

460The Transcript of the final hearing was filed, and the

470parties filed proposed recommended orders that have been

478considered.

479FINDING S OF FACT

4831. At the time of the events giving rise to the

494Administrative Complaint in this case, t he Respondent, Theresia

503Helton, held two Florida real estate broker licenses (BK 3077530

513and BK 3248280) and was the owner and qualifying broker for

5241010 Apartments, Inc., a real estate brokerage firm. However, on

534May 22, 2013, FREC entered a Final Order suspending those

544licenses for five years. The Final Order is on appeal by the

556Division, which seeks to revoke the Respondent ' s licenses, as

567recommended by the Administrative Law Judge in that case.

5762 . Eileen and Ernest Armitage ( " the Armitages " ) reside in

588New Jersey and own a condominium located at 15599 Latitude Drive,

599Bonita Springs, Florida ( " the property " or " condo " ). In 2010,

610the Armitages began communicating with the Respondent and asked

619her to find a tenant for the property. In return for the

631R espondent ' s services, the Armitages verbally agreed to pay her a

644commission of ten percent of the annual gross rent.

6533 . In September 2010, the Respondent obtained a tenant,

663Marion Ward Bentson, to rent the property for $1,400 a month and

676pay a security deposit in the amount of one month ' s rent. The

690Respondent filled in a form lease to begin on September 14 of

702that year. On September 8, 2010, the lease was signed by

713Ms. Bentson and by the Respondent on behalf of the Armitages (in

725one place as their agen t, and in another as landlord). The

737Respondent collected the $1,400 security deposit and $700

746prorated first month of rent from Ms. Bentson. The lease

756directed the tenant to mail future rent payments to " Ilene [sic]

767Armitage/1010 Apartments, Inc. " at the brokerage ' s address in

777Naples. The Respondent then submitted the lease to the

786homeowners association (HOA) for approval. The lease was

794approved by the HOA on September 14, 2010, and became effective

805on that date. The Respondent kept the $2,100 collecte d from the

818tenant in payment of the $1,680 commission, plus other charges.

8294 . Some details of the 2010 transactions remain unclear.

839The Armitages testified that the Respondent sent the lease to

849them and that they made corrections, signed the corrected lease,

859and returned it to the Respondent. The Respondent testified that

869the HOA sent the lease to the Armitages after approval and that

881no corrected lease signed by the Armitages was returned to her.

8925 . A corrected lease was introduced in evidence. It

902indicates that Eileen Armitage corrected the spelling of her

911name, clarified that the Armitages were the landlord under the

921lease, clarified that future rent and notices were to be sent to

933the Armitages in New Jersey, initialed the changes, and signed

943the corrected lease on September 15, 2010.

9506 . The corrected lease apparently was not presented to the

961HOA for approval, and it is not clear what happened to it. It

974is, however, clear from the evidence that the parties ' subsequent

985conduct was consistent wi th the corrected lease, and that the

996Armitages had no complaints about the Respondent ' s conduct with

1007respect to the Bentson lease.

10127 . In July 2011, Ms. Bentson stopped paying rent and gave

1024notice that she was moving out. The Armitages contacted the

1034Re spondent and asked her to help them find a tenant to replace

1047Ms. Bentson. It was agreed verbally, or assumed, that the

1057Respondent again would be paid a commission of ten percent of the

1069annual gross rent. The Armitages testified that there also was a

1080verb al agreement that the commission on the Bentson lease would

1091be prorated, entitling the Armitages to a refund. The Respondent

1101denied that there was any agreement to prorate the Bentson lease

1112commission. On this disagreement, the Respondent ' s testimony was

1122more believable. The Armitages remained in communication with

1130the Respondent while she attempted to find a new tenant.

11408 . At the end of August 2011, Laurie Ungar contacted the

1152Respondent regarding the Armitage property, and the Respondent

1160arranged for Mrs. Ungar to see the condo. Mrs. Ungar noted that

1172there were scuff marks on the walls, trash that needed to be

1184removed, and carpet and a patio deck that needed cleaning. She

1195expressed her interest in renting the condo, if those items were

1206corrected. T he Respondent reported to the Armitages, who were

1216under the impression that the condo already was in good condition

1227and did not agree to spend money for additional repairs. The

1238Respondent decided to proceed with the lease negotiations and

1247arrange for what ever work would be needed to satisfy the Ungars.

12599 . T he Respondent met with Mrs. Ungar on August 31, 2011,

1272and negotiated on behalf of the Armitages. The Respondent filled

1282in a form lease to begin on September 21, 2011. Mrs. Ungar

1294signed for herself a nd her husband and gave the Respondent a

1306check for $75 for the HOA application fee. The lease identified

" 1317Ilene [sic] Armitage " as landlord and provided for notices to be

1328sent to her, although no contact information was included for

1338her. The Respondent s igned as landlord in one place on the form

1351and as agent in another. She also initialed the lease as

1362landlord. By checks dated September 1, 2011, Mrs. Ungar gave the

1373Respondent $500 for the first month ' s prorated rent, $1,500 for

1386the following month ' s ren t, a security deposit in the amount of

1400$1,500, and a pet security deposit in the amount of $250.

14121 0 . The Respondent reported to the Armitages that the

1423Ungars signed the lease. She then sent someone to touch up the

1435scuff marks on the walls and clean up t he apartment. Either the

1448Armitages or the HOA apparently asked for a pet fee from the

1460Ungars, which they delivered to the Respondent by check dated

1470September 13, 2011. The Respondent then submitted the lease to

1480the HOA for approval. The lease was approv ed by the HOA on

1493September 19 , 2011 . The Ungars moved in at 3 a.m. on

1505September 21, 2011.

15081 1 . When the Ungars arrived, they still were dissatisfied

1519with the condition of the condo. The walls had been touched up

1531with the wrong color paint , so it looked like graffiti. There

1542was still trash at the condo, and the patio deck and carpet still

1555needed cleaning, in their opinion. They contacted the

1563Respondent, who came over with a can of paint and removed some of

1576the trash. The Ungars remained very dissatisfi ed with the

1586condition of the condo.

15901 2 . Shortly after the Ungars moved in, the Armitages began

1602asking the Respondent for a copy of the lease. For reasons not

1614clear from the testimony, they did not receive the lease or any

1626money from the Respondent and b ecame increasingly agitated about

1636it.

16371 3 . At the end of the month, the Armitages received a final

1651bill from the utility company. When they inquired, they were

1661told that the utilities had been transferred to another payor,

1671who was occupying the condo. T hey contacted the Ungars directly,

1682and the Ungars told them that they still were dissatisfied with

1693the condition of the condo and wanted to terminate the lease at

1705the end of October and get their deposits refunded. The

1715Armitages told them that they did no t have the deposits, as the

1728Respondent still had not forwarded them any money. Mr. Ungar

1738went to the Respondent ' s office, told her about the conversation

1750with the Armitages, and demanded a refund of the deposits. She

1761told him she already had sent the mon ey to the Armitages.

17731 4 . On October 6, 2011, the Respondent emailed the

1784Armitages to report her conversation with Mr. Ungar and tell them

1795it was up to them if they wanted to let the Ungars out of the

1810lease, but that she had earned her commission. She st ated that

1822she had cleaned up the condo for the Ungars after the Armitages

1834had declined and had mailed the Armitages a check for $1,500,

1846which was what was left of the moneys paid by the Ungars after

1859deducting her commission in the amount of $1,800, a clean ing fee

1872of $150, another $150 for pressure - washing the patio deck, a

1884painting fee of $200, and another fee of $200 for cleaning and

1896hauling out trash. There was no evidence that those sums

1906actually were incurred by the Respondent or that any of the work

1918h ad been done, except for the poor touch - up of the scuff marks on

1934the walls.

19361 5 . After the Respondent sent the email, she thought better

1948of sending the $1,500 check since both the Armitages and the

1960Ungars were claiming it. The money remained in her opera ting

1971account. She believed she was entitled to keep the balance of

1982the $4,000 paid by the Ungars. She did not notify FREC of any

1996deposit dispute.

19981 6 . On October 7, 2011, the Armitages emailed the

2009Respondent to again ask for a copy of the signed lease a nd

2022listing agreement. On October 10, 2011, they emailed to again

2032ask for the signed lease and ask for the invoices for the work

2045done (or at least contact information for the vendors). By email

2056dated October 12, 2011, they followed up to again request the

2067information. They got no response from the Respondent, except to

2077say that she did not mail the check referred to in the email on

2091October 6, 2011.

20941 7 . The Armitages and Ungars renegotiated the lease. The

2105Armitages reduced the monthly rent to pay the Un gars for

2116painting, cleaning, and other work they did at the condo to make

2128it satisfactory to them.

21321 8 . The Armitages sued the Respondent and settled for

2143$2,700, which was paid by check dated July 12, 2012. The

2155Armitages used $2,000 from the settlement t o return deposits to

2167the Ungars.

216919. During the Division's investigation, the Respondent was

2177asked to provide a copy of her agreement with the Armitages and

2189her escrow bank account records. There were no such records.

2199Later, a subpoena was issued for th e records for the Respondent's

2211operating account, which were produced. There was no evidence

2220that the Division asked for the records for the operating account

2231before issuing the subpoena.

223520 . The Respondent ' s license is suspended until May 21,

22472018, becau se the Division proved charges that in the fall of

22592010, she was culpably negligent , in violation of section

22684 7 5.25(1)(b) , and failed to account and deliver , in viol ation of

2281section 475.25(1)(d)1.

22832 1 . The Respondent is the single mother of two daughters,

2295whom she was supporting by income earned as a real estate broker,

2307as well as child support payments.

23132 2 . The Division has incurred costs in the amount of $825

2326in prosecuting this case against the Respondent.

2333CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

23362 3 . Since this is a lice nse discipline case, the Division

2349must prove its allegations by clear and convincing evidence.

2358Dep ' t of Banking & Fin. v. Osborne Stern & Co . , 670 So. 2d 932

2375Fla. 1996); Ferris v. Turlingto n , 510 So. 2d 292 (Fla. 1987).

2387The Supreme Court has stated:

2392Clea r and convincing evidence requires that

2399the evidence must be found to be credible;

2407the facts to which the witnesses testify must

2415be distinctly remembered; the testimony must

2421be precise and lacking in confusion as to the

2430facts in issue. The evidence must b e of such

2440a weight that it produces in the mind of the

2450trier of fact a firm belief or convicti o n,

2460without hesitancy, as to the truth of the

2468allegations sought to be established.

2473In re Henson , 913 So. 2d 579, 590 (Fla. 2005)(quoting Slomowitz

2484v. Walker , 42 9 So. 2d 797, 800 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983)).

24962 4 . In Count I, the Division charged the Respondent with

2508failure to account and deliver with respect to the Armitage - Unger

2520transaction, in violation of section 4 7 5.25(1)(d). The evidence

2530was clear and convincing tha t the Respondent violated this

2540statute, which required a better accounting than given by the

2550Respondent and also required the Respondent to notify FREC of the

2561deposit dispute.

25632 5 . In Count II, the Division charged the Respondent with

2575violating 475.25(1)( b) by culpable negligence or breach of trust.

2585This offense requires proof on an intentional act. See Munch v.

2596Dep ' t of Prof. Reg., Div. of Real Estate , 592 So. 2d 1136 (Fla.

26111st DCA 1992). The evidence was clear and convincing that the

2622Respondent intent ionally engaged in the conduct that constituted

2631culpable negligence and breach of trust , in violation of the

2641statute.

26422 6 . In Count III and IV, the Division alleg e d that the

2657Respondent failed to escrow rental payments and deposits, in

2666violation of section 475.25(1)(k) and rule 61J2 - 10.010(1) and,

2676therefore, section 475.25(1)(e). In Count V, it was alleged that

2686the Respondent failed to properly reconcile her escrow account,

2695in violation of rule 61J2 - 14.012(2) and, therefore, section

2705475.25(1)(e). The Resp ondent admitted those violations.

27122 7 . In Count VI, the Division alleged that the Respondent

2724failed to make transaction agreements and bank statements

2732reflecting deposits available to the Division ' s investigator, in

2742violation of rule 61J2 - 14.012(1) and, t herefore, section

2752475.25(1)(e). The Respondent had no escrow account. The

2760Respondent produced the deposit slips and statements from her

2769operating account in response to a subpoena . The Division

2779contends that the operating account records were not produc ed

2789upon request, prior to the subpoena, but there was no proof of

2801that . There were no transaction agreements. For these reasons,

2811it was not proven that the Respondent violated rule

282061J2 - 14.012(1) or, therefore, section 475.25(1)(e).

28272 8 . Under the discip linary guidelines in rule

283761J2 - 24.001(3), the normal range of discipline for the proven

2848violations are: for Count I, which is a second violation of

2859section 475.25(1)(d), from suspension to revocation and an

2867administrative fine from $1,000 to $5,000, unde r paragraph (e);

2879for Count II, which is a second violation of 475.25(1)(b), from a

2891six - month suspension to revocation and an administrative fine

2901from $2,500 to $5,000, under paragraph (c); and for Counts III

2914and IV, from a 30 - day suspension to revocation a nd an

2927administrative fine from $250 to $1,000, under paragraph (l), for

2938each violation.

29402 9 . Under rule 61J 2 - 24.001(4), aggravating or mitigating

2952circumstances that can justify a departure from the normal range

2962of discipline, if proven by clear and convin cing evidence,

2972include: the degree of harm to the consumer or public; the

2983number of counts in the a dministrative c omplaint; the licensee ' s

2996disciplinary history; the status of the licensee at the time of

3007the offense; the degree of financial hardship incurr ed by the

3018licensee from a fine or suspension; and a previous letter of

3029guidance.

303030 . The facts of this case justify a penalty at the top of

3044the normal range of discipline -- specifically , revocation. The

3053Division appears to take into consideration the fin ancial

3062hardship on the Respondent and her children from the imposition

3072of a fine, in that no fine is being sought in addition to the

3086requested revocation of her license .

3092RECOMMENDATION

3093Based on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of

3103Law, it is R ECOMMENDED that the Florida Real Estate Commission

3114enter a final order: finding the Respondent guilty as charged in

3125Counts I through V of the Administrative Complaint; revoking her

3135licenses; and assessing costs in the amount of $825.

3144DONE AND ENTERED this 21st day of November , 2013 , in
