Hi Mike-
As of July 1st, the number of MAR members was 26,360. Click on the link to view the Michigan Association of Realtors monthly report of member count. However, all members are not Realtors. Some are appraisers, etc., and there is no separate count according to Julie Rowell, Membership Systems Coordinator, MAR. http://www.mirealtors.com/documents/MemberCounts.pdf

Mike, The 28,500 number appears to be fairly accurate. Several hundred will be leaving the profession because they cannot afford their board dues. Last March there were over 31,000 Realtors(R) in Michigan.

According to the Michigan Association of Realtors: "The Michigan Association of REALTORS® is a professional trade organization for real estate professionals. It serves its members by advancing the interest of REALTORS® and promotes and protects private property rights of Michigan citizens. Members can also take advantage of MAR's money-saving member services. With over 28,500 members, MAR finds many ways to fulfill its mission."
