Why Not Just Let It Expire?

An inactive real estate license in Michigan means starting over. Holding it with a referral-only real estate broker keeps it alive instead.

If You Let It Expire:

  • Have to retake pre-licensing course
  • Time & effort to get licensed again
  • Lose years of experience
  • Practice the 75% laws all over again

Or Do None Of That.

What Happens to a Lapsed Michigan Real Estate License

Letting a Michigan real estate license lapse isn't just an inconvenience — it typically means starting over: retaking pre-licensing coursework, resitting the state exam, and losing the years of standing you've already built with the state. Agents who step away from active selling, whether for a career change, family reasons, or simply a slow season, often don't realize there's a middle path between staying fully active and losing the license altogether.

National Holding exists for exactly that gap. Instead of paying full MLS and REALTOR® dues to keep a license active while you're not transacting, or letting it expire and rebuilding from zero later, you place your license in holding for $85/year. It stays in good standing with the state, you keep your continuing education current, and you're free to pick back up — selling, brokering, or just referring — whenever you're ready.

Referral Split Example

Here's how a typical referral works:

$14,000CommissionEarned on the transaction
$7,000To Listing/Selling Broker(50%)
$1,750To National Holding(25%)
$1,225To You (70%)Your share of the referral

You refer. We support. You earn.

What if I’m not actively selling?

No problem. National Holding keeps your Michigan real estate license in escrow for agents who aren't actively transacting.

Can I still refer clients?

Absolutely! As a real estate license referral company, we let you refer buyers, sellers, or investors anytime.

What if I want to get back to selling?

Easy. When you’re ready, simply choose a broker and get back to real estate.

Is National Holding state backed?

Yes. As a referral-only real estate broker, we're a licensed Michigan Institute of Real Estate provider and follow state regulations.
