License Required? Yes. Many of the required duties of the property manager require a real estate license, including soliciting prospective tenants and leasing or renting property on behalf of another party (§ 10130, § 10131).
Exceptions – A manager may be exempt from state licensing laws if they are a resident manager of an apartment building or complex, an employee of a resident manager, or an employee of a licensed agent or firm (§ 10131.01).
