When it comes to professional property management, not all companies are created equal. One of the key indicators of quality and commitment in this industry is membership in the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM®). At RentWise Property Management, we’re proud to be active members of NARPM® and have even held leadership positions on the board of the Southwest Idaho chapter.
But what does that mean for you, as a property owner or a resident? A lot! It is really exciting and a very cool piece of the puzzle that many may not know about.
What Is NARPM®?
Founded in 1988, NARPM® is the premier organization for professionals who manage single-family and small residential properties. It sets the standard for excellence in property management by offering education, certification, networking, and advocacy that elevate the industry as a whole.
Members must adhere to a strict Code of Ethics and demonstrate a commitment to best practices in everything from resident relations to property maintenance to financial reporting.
The RentWise Commitment to Professional Growth
RentWise has been more than just a member—we’ve been leaders. We’ve proudly served on the board in years past of the Southwest Idaho Chapter of NARPM®, helping shape the local property management landscape. Our team continues to attend ongoing education sessions, chapter meetings, and networking socials, staying ahead of the curve on everything from legal changes to market trends.
Why does this matter? Because staying engaged and educated means we’re constantly improving the way we serve both property owners and residents.
NARPM® Certifications: What They Are and Why They Matter
NARPM offers several professional designations, each representing a high level of expertise and ethical commitment:
Residential Management Professional (RMP®) – Recognizes property managers who demonstrate a strong foundation of experience and education.
Master Property Manager (MPM®) – The highest designation, awarded to elite managers with advanced leadership, knowledge, and long-term dedication.
Certified Residential Management Company (CRMC®) – Given to property management companies that have passed a rigorous audit and have an RMP® or MPM® at the helm.
Certified Support Specialist (CSS®) – For team members who specialize in administrative and operational roles within the company.
At RentWise, members of our team hold NARPM designations, proving our dedication to professionalism and ethical excellence at every level of service.
