Suggested Answer: D

A property manager is hired by an owner to manage rental property, maintain operations, and maximize return on investment.

Other options:

(A) Sponsoring broker -- oversees real estate salespersons, not rentals.

(B) Appraisal manager -- not a real estate role.

(C) Broker's agent -- represents broker in brokerage activities, not property management.

I’m a bit confused. I thought a broker's agent was more about selling, not managing properties. But I guess it could be possible?

I practiced a similar question where someone was managing properties, and it was definitely about property management. So I’m leaning towards D.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember a question about different roles in real estate. A property manager sounds right, but could it be a broker's agent?

Hmm, I'm a little confused. Is George considered a sponsoring broker since he's managing the properties on Clarence's behalf? Or is property manager the right term here? I'll have to review the definitions to be sure.
