When do I need a realtor?
I've heard of mixed messages about what a non realtor can and can't do with respect to renting houses. Some people say they can't show houses, others say they can show it on behalf of the landlord who then has to approve applicants etc. what I haven't found is a good original source on these rules. I know it's likely state specific, but does anyone know where I'd find these guidelines? If it helps, I'm looking for Iowa. I've read through the landlord tenant laws, and they don't explicitly say anything about the restrictions on real estate licenses.
