Should I get my PE License?

Simple question for those of you more entrenched in the real estate world.

Im a civil engineer, and i work for large developers and REITs in NYC. However, im a couple years away from getting my professional engineering license.

Im wondering how VALUABLE or USEFUL this credential will be for someone who is looking to buy some small buildings and get into development of residential rental properties. Ive worked 3 years to get to where I am but i dont know if I should give up the chance to get this cred.

All info would be helpful!
