Becoming a general contractor in Illinois

[Carolina E.]

Hello BP!  My husband has a decent amount of rehabs under his belt.  He has a wide range of knowledge and experience in construction.  We have been doing research, but we can not figure out what the requirements are for IL.  I know you have to be licensed in a specific town and hold insurance, but what are the steps to becoming a GC?  Or if you can please direct me for more information. Thank you.
