Frequently asked questions
How is a property management company structured?
A typical mid-size property management company has the Owner at the top with a Director of Operations supervising Leasing, Maintenance, and Portfolio Managers (one PM per 100 to 300 units). A Controller handles accounting. Total staff usually 10 to 60.
How many units per portfolio manager?
A healthy ratio is 1 Portfolio Manager per 150 to 250 units. Heavy single-family rentals lean toward the lower end; large multi-family communities lean higher because on-site staff absorb day-to-day work.
Where do on-site managers fit?
On-site Resident Managers and Maintenance Techs report to the Portfolio Manager for the property they cover. They have a dotted line to the Maintenance Manager for tooling, training, and on-call coverage.
