You do not need to have a license to manage an apartment community.Property management can then be broken down into "annual" property management (normally a unit without furniture), a seasonal rental management (such as 2 weeks to several months up to 6 months) and then vacation rentals (sometimes for the weekend, a week, etc..).Each state has its different rules and licensing for each area of property management (annual, seasonal and vacation) as well as the different areas of management (association, apartment and property).I hope that helps.My understanding is that if you are an EMPLOYEE of the property owner you do not need to have a license; if you provide property management services as your management co owned business or as an independent contractor, then you do need a license.
