Real Estate Liscense??

[Leah H.]

I am just starting out in real estate investing, and trying to figure out the best place to start with my education. To get our feet wet, my husband and I would like to find a fixer-upper/foreclosure to rehab and flip. We plan on living in the house as our primary residence while fixing it up. I'm very new to real estate, and have been thinking about taking a real estate liscensing course. Would this be a reccomended route to go? Eventual goals are to turn real estate investing into a career.
