I have a custom user type (Property Manager) set up in Access that's supposed to have access to edit one of our custom post types (Properties). But when I log in as a test user with that access level, it lets me go to the edit screen for those custom post types, but the section with all the custom fields isn't there.

I checked under Screen Options and it's not being hidden, it's not in the list of options there at all. I confirmed that under Access Control > Types Fields, it has both view and edit access checked for that group of custom fields. I also tried disabling all other plugins in case of a conflict, and when I did that the access was even more restricted, I could see a list of Properties, but didn't have access to the edit screen for them.

Any idea what might be wrong?

I think you see a BUG that should be resolved in Types 3.2.6
Can you update?

That got it, thanks. The admin didn't show any updates available or I would have tried updating first.
