What is the ANZSCO code for property manager?

Which skilled occupation list is Property Manager on?

Can I get a 189 visa as a property manager?
No. Home Affairs does not list Property Manager for the 189, which is only open to some MLTSSL occupations. Routes that are open: a regional 491 with state nomination or a regional employer (494).
Is Property Manager eligible for state nomination (190 or 491)?

Can an employer sponsor a property manager?
Only in regional Australia. It is not on the CSOL, so the 482 Core Skills stream and 186 Direct Entry stream are not available, but a regional employer can nominate it for the subclass 494 visa.
