SC Contractor License

[Daniel Dexter]

Hey all,

I've been bouncing around the states a little bit.

I got my RE license in Michigan while going to school...graduated with a degree in construction management and took a job in Florida as a commercial construction project manager.

Long story short, I am moving to SC and would like to take the GC license exam when I get there.

However (and I have seen this in other states) SC requires a positive net worth to take the exam.

Can anyone explain this to me??? Can I stuff 6k into a brand new LLC and say this "new business" has positive net worth?....is this really a requirement to take the exam?
