At the moment, seems to me it's should be like having dogs (property) and a dog walker (service). If I have three dogs, I need three licenses if I walk them myself. If I have three dogs and hire a dog walker, I need 3 licenses, and the dog walker needs 1 license for his business service.
Folks'ism aside, each property that is not my personal residence would need a license, a business which manages my properties would need a license. If I'm managing my licensed properties, I do not need a separate business license.
What do you think?
What if I have a room in my personal house that I rent out during the season like a Vacation Rental, do I need a license?
What do you think?
While I agree with Christine (see below) that the rental model for long term rentals is a good model for vacation rentals, vacation rentals have a substantially different impact and business model. Many residents believe they need different accountability. That being said, there is also the issue of having a non-personal residence be both a long-term rental in the off-season, and a vacation rental during the tourist season.

A rental management business is a single business no matter the number of rental homes involved.

This is incorrect. Vacation rentals are basically separate motels with one unit. Each separate vacation rental must have a business license. Who manages it is NOT the issue at all. Each business establishment with a different address requires a separate business license. Marilyn
