Property Manager Jobs in Virginia: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a property manager in Virginia?
To work as a property manager in Virginia you need an active real estate license issued by the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation, which requires completing state-approved pre-licensing education and passing the Virginia Real Estate Salesperson exam. Most employers expect candidates to hold or work toward a broker's license if they will negotiate leases on behalf of owners. Designations like the CPM or RMP strengthen your candidacy, particularly for portfolio-level roles.
How much do property managers make in Virginia?
Property managers in Virginia earn a median of about $79,810 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $45,340 for the lowest 10% to over $169,040 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire property managers in Virginia?
Employers hiring property managers in Virginia right now include Gates Hudson, Drucker and Falk, and Quantum Real Estate Management, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. Virginia's strong mix of institutional apartment communities, government-adjacent commercial assets, and mixed-use developments means demand comes from both national real estate investment trusts and regional ownership groups with deep local portfolios.
Which Virginia cities have the most property manager jobs?
Richmond, Arlington, and Alexandria account for the most property manager openings in Virginia. Northern Virginia's rapid residential and commercial growth near the D.C. corridor drives the largest share of listings, while Richmond's expanding mixed-use districts and Virginia Beach's dense coastal rental market sustain consistent hiring across both urban cores and surrounding suburban communities.
Are there remote property manager jobs in Virginia?
Yes, but they're rare. Property management is fundamentally a site-based role requiring physical inspections, tenant interactions, and vendor oversight. About 0% of property manager openings tied to Virginia are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, and those positions are almost always corporate or portfolio-level roles involving financial reporting, compliance oversight, or regional coordination rather than day-to-day building management.
How can I get hired as a property manager in Virginia with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a leasing consultant or assistant property manager role, which large residential operators across Northern Virginia and Richmond regularly fill with candidates who have strong customer service backgrounds rather than direct property experience. Companies managing large apartment communities often promote internally from leasing staff. Earning your Virginia real estate license before applying gives you a measurable advantage, and pursuing the RMP designation through the National Association of Residential Property Managers signals commitment that offsets a shorter work history.
Where can I find and apply to property manager jobs in Virginia?
You can find and apply to property manager jobs in Virginia on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the listings to see roles that match your experience level and target market, then apply directly to the ones that fit.
