A few states require a specific property management license or broker license, while others have minimal or no licensing requirements. Some companies also maintain professional certifications—such as IREM’s CPM (Certified Property Manager) or NARPM’s RMP/MMP—which signal additional training and industry knowledge. Owners should always confirm local requirements when hiring a property management company.
