I’ve come across options like the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM), National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM), and Certified Property Manager (CPM) programs, but I’d love to hear opinions on which have been the most valuable in practice.Additionally, any recommendations for resources, books, tools, or online communities that have been helpful for day-to-day management would be appreciated!
