Idaho does not require a specific property management license to operate a property management company. At Lake CDA Property Management, we believe professional management should be held to a higher standard.
Our owners, Hannah and Colton Haaker, are licensed Idaho real estate professionals, and our team is made up of licensed real estate professionals. We are also members of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM®), giving our team access to industry-specific education, best practices, ethics, and professional resources.
For our owners, that means your property is managed by a team committed to professional standards, ongoing education, strong documentation, and responsible property management practices.
