Property Manager License
In the summer of 2019, Chapter 43 of Amherst Town Code – Property Manager was adopted and tasked the Town of Amherst Building Department with enforcing the new Property Manger License & Rental Unit Registration requirements. An essential purpose of this law is to create a point of contact for rental properties creating a transparent relationship between the property owner and the Building Department ensuring that rental units are safe and that the surrounding neighborhood is minimally impacted by transient living and absentee owners. For more information on the rules and regulations, please follow the link below.
