I assure you, it's real.
But to answer your question, it's going to be somewhat difficult to find a company who will hire you to work from home if you don't have your foot in the door in some manner.
The reason is that almost everyone wants to work from home if given the choice, so
everyone is looking for the same job. Heck, even in this one forum community, there are dozens of posts about this very topic.
Everyone wants the freedom to work at home, but they expect the company to assume all the financial risk.
And I'm not being a jerk or singling you out... I'm just trying to play the role of the company that would hire someone for a work-at-home position.
See, without knowing you before hiring you, they are putting THEIR livelihood into YOUR hands while you are UNSUPERVISED at home. That's a great deal of trust to put into someone, especially if that person hasn't made any sort of investment into the business.
Your choices are to A.) Push your resume out into the world and try to get it into the hands of human resources at a company that offers jobs-at-home positions, or B.) Build your own business and sub-contract accounts that you get on your own steam.
But the latter requires selling skills, i.e. you have to sell yourself and your business.
So that brings us back to choice A, and from my experiences, I feel that your best bet is to either find a company that offers work-at-home career options, and apply there, even if you have to work at their offices for awhile until you can work your way up.
If that isn't an option, try networking and find someone who can influence the company on your behalf.
The fact is, you only pay a fee for home-based business opportunities that you
license the right to market... you should NEVER pay a fee to start a job, aside from fees that might be associated with testing/qualifying (such as a personal training license or a mortgage broker license), or if you have to provide your own tools (construction, computer-repair, etc).
But companies are outsourcing less-and-less with new hires, and are instead choosing to remain in-house with current employees who wish to work from home.
It's not impossible, but that's why it's not easy to find such jobs in the Sunday paper or in Google... you've got to dig deeper.
