When it comes to property management, experience counts. Property managers come from many fields such as experienced real estate investors, building contractors, real estate agents, architects and educational centers and degrees. Many states require property managers to be licensed real estate brokers, license business and/or Community Association Managers which many require a certain amount of classroom hours, passing examinations and continuing education programs. With many states adopting new laws regarding real estate and property management check yearly with your state to see current status on licensing.
