Step 5. To allow access to Real Estate manager, a menu item must be created. In Joomla Admin area select Menus > Main Menu > New (button in right corner)

Remark about the language of the menu entries:

The language of the top menu entries are the only part of the installation which is not handled by the Real Estate Manager language files. These entries are controlled through the realestatemanager.xml file at installation time only. The menu entries in the horizontal top bar will follow the Real Estate Manager language file entries, but the top menu entries will not. So, if you also want the top menu entries to be the same as your own backend language (presuming it is not set to English), then you need to adjust the realestatemanager.xml file BEFORE you install!
Installation it is located in the directory  /components/com_realestatemanager/language/
