🏛️ State License Law 📍 Michigan

📖 What you need to know

Client and escrow money in Michigan must be kept in a separate broker trust account and never commingled with the broker's own funds. Salesperson and broker licenses are issued on a three-year cycle and must be renewed before expiration, with continuing education completed during each renewal period to stay current on law and practice. Because Michigan is not a community property state, marital property is divided under equitable distribution rules, which affects how title and ownership are handled in transactions.
