do you need a real estate license to manage property

[ONaomi]

Whether a real estate license is required to manage property depends on the state and the specific activities being performed. In most states, a license is needed if you are managing property for others for compensation, as activities like advertising, negotiating leases, and collecting rent are considered real estate brokerage activities. Some states require a specific property management license, while others require a full real estate broker's license. However, a license is typically not required if you are managing your own property.
