Property manager licensing in Connecticut

In Connecticut, renting real estate for another for a fee is part of the "real estate business," so a person doing it needs a real estate license unless an exemption in chapter 392 applies. Statute text: "“Engage in the real estate business” means to, while acting for another and for a fee, commission or other valuable consideration, negotiate for or offer, or attempt to list for sale, sell, exchange, buy or rent, an estate or interest in real estate" (Conn. Gen. Stat. §§ 20-311(15), 20-312(a)).
