If you simply want to buy property and manage it yourself, you do not need a license. If you want to manage other people’s property, you will need a license.

There is a property management certificate (or license) that is available HOWEVER… you can manage property with a real estate license. The real estate pre-license course is longer and your real estate license is harder to get however, if you want to work for a real estate broker and buy/sell real estate and keep the commission off your own sales (at the very least), you shoudl probably get the real estate license and not just the property management certificate.

I got my license through the Barney Fletcher school of Real Estate. There are several locations in ATL that you can take classes with a teacher or you can take them online.
I recommend in class so you can ask questions.
I’m not pushing you towards one school or another but when I went to this school it had the highest pass rate on the state exam.

AND since becoming a Realtor, I have had the same teachers for some continuing ed classes offered by my local Board of Realtors, so the teachers are quality..
