Should I get my Real Estate License if my ultimate goal is to flip homes?

[Jessica Dega]

Open to any thoughts on this. My husband is a general contractor. Is it a good idea if I become a Realtor? Seems like it good be a good idea...

Yes, being a licensed real estate agent will open doors within the field, will help provide and build solid networking (especially for information on off-market opportunities), and will help open access to software, programs, and systems that will absolutely support your role as a home flipper.  Particularly in combination with your husband as a general contractor, this seems well worth the effort and expense.
