Nobody is buying and everybody is selling. With all the mortgage companies going bust here and all the realtors around, why would you want to become a real estate agent here?
I am sorry you hubby lost his job, but trust me, even if you became an agent in MI, you work on commission, and you are not going to making very much, if anything. The houses just arent selling now, just being forclosed on.
However, to answer your question, check the want ads in the paper. There are a few realtors that are willing to give you free training. Then you have to pass the govt test. Its not going to happen overnite, so you should look for other work to get you through these times.
