Inspector License

[Stormy Harvey]

My husband and I have been researching various aspects of becoming investors. One consistent theme is the recommendation to pursue a real estate license, which I am heavily considering. However, what is the recommendation on obtaining an inspector license as well? It seems to us that it may possibly make sense to know what rehab problems you are looking at in advance of pursuing a property and incurring the expense for an inspection. What is the consensus on this topic?
