Licensing as Realtor or Appraiser beneficial

[Angie Hills]

My husband and I are working on some capital to get back into REI (he already has experience) and we were talking about getting Market Value's & COMPS from Realtor's. He said - it may be worth one of us getting licensed to acces the MLS. I told him I would do some research and see if it would be beneficial for us to put the $ and time into schooling & licensing. And make sure there aren't any conflicts with a licensed Realtor or Appraiser Investing.
Any advise on this? Thanks in advance for all your help!
