Property owners rely on our small real estate business to manage their real estate investments in Fairfax.

Licensed agents are required to successfully completed an approved course of study. And, real estate agents must pass a Virginia licensing exam. Still, a property manager license is not required in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Even without this requirement, Nesbitt Realty's rental property managers are all licensed real estate licensees who report directly to a licensed real estate broker. This means that Nesbitt's agents are very familiar with state regulations for the handling of landlord responsibilities and many other details of real estate and landlord-tenant regulation. Licensure is important, but so is appropriate certification. Property management certifications are an additional indicator of more extensive industry knowledge. Trade organizations like the Virginia Association of Realtors and the National Association of Residential Property Managers grant these credentials only to qualifed managers. Nesbitt Realty is an approved member of the National Association of Residential Property Managers and has a number of related affiliations.
