How to Prepare for the Michigan Real Estate Exam

After completing your 40-hour pre-licensing course, dedicate 2–3 weeks to exam-specific practice before scheduling your PSI Exams appointment. Focus on the topics most commonly missed: commission and proration calculations, agency law (fiduciary duties, dual agency rules), Fair Housing Act protected classes, and contract law (offer, acceptance, consideration, contingencies).
