Tell us what’s happening:

the code is not working even though im inputing the right code (not indention and type error is the problem)

Your code so far

class Employee:
    _base_salaries = {
        'trainee': 1000,
        'junior': 2000,
        'mid-level': 3000,
        'senior': 4000,
    }

    def __init__(self, name, level):
        self.name = name
        self.level = level
        self._salary = Employee._base_salaries[level]

    def __str__(self):
        return f'{self.name}: {self.level}'

    def __repr__(self):
        return f"Employee('{self.name}', '{self.level}')"

    @property
    def name(self):
        return self._name

    @name.setter
    def name(self, new_name):
        if not isinstance(new_name, str):
            raise TypeError("'name' must be a string.")
        self._name = new_name
        print(f"'name' updated to '{self.name}'.")

    @property
    def level(self):
        return self._level

    @level.setter
    def level(self, new_level):
        if not isinstance(new_level, str):
            raise TypeError("'level' must be a string.")
        if new_level not in Employee._base_salaries:
            raise ValueError(f"Invalid value '{new_level}' for 'level' attribute.")

# User Editable Region

        if hasattr(self, '_level'):
            if new_level == self._level:

# User Editable Region

        self._level = new_level
    

    @property
    def salary(self):
        return self._salary

charlie_brown = Employee('Charlie Brown', 'trainee')
print(charlie_brown)
print(f'Base salary: ${charlie_brown.salary}')

you can’t have an if statement that is empty, so you start with the inner if that is giving an indentation error because there is nothing inside it

please make sure that you have only one if, merge the two conditions together

Already merged the two conditions but still wont

class Employee:
    _base_salaries = {
        'trainee': 1000,
        'junior': 2000,
        'mid-level': 3000,
        'senior': 4000,
    }

    def __init__(self, name, level):
        self.name = name
        self.level = level
        self._salary = Employee._base_salaries[level]

    def __str__(self):
        return f'{self.name}: {self.level}'

    def __repr__(self):
        return f"Employee('{self.name}', '{self.level}')"

    @property
    def name(self):
        return self._name

    @name.setter
    def name(self, new_name):
        if not isinstance(new_name, str):
            raise TypeError("'name' must be a string.")
        self._name = new_name
        print(f"'name' updated to '{self.name}'.")

    @property
    def level(self):
        return self._level

    @level.setter
    def level(self, new_level):
        if not isinstance(new_level, str):
            raise TypeError("'level' must be a string.")
        if new_level not in Employee._base_salaries:
            raise ValueError(f"Invalid value '{new_level}' for 'level' attribute.")
        if hasattr(self, '_level') and new_level == self._level:
            raise ValueError(f"'{new_level}' is already the selected level.")
        self._level = new_level
    

    @property
    def salary(self):
        return self._salary

charlie_brown = Employee('Charlie Brown', 'trainee')
print(charlie_brown)
print(f'Base salary: ${charlie_brown.salary}')

you already have a getter, so you should use it here
