This is a good thing. You want any home you may buy to have been built under the supervision of a licensed general contractor.

$2k gets you a general contractor licence in my area (Canada). The fact someone is licensed means almost nothing at all for general contractors. Its more important they have insurance.

Don't they have to have several years of experience as well?
