Property management company growth (looking for some advice)

[Brian Walsh]

I own a Property Management Company in Greenville, S.C.. We have been growing steadily since we started the business . I'm getting to the point where I will need to hire another employee in the next 6 months, but I'm just not sure what that position should be. 

We currently manage just under 200 properties with 1 PM (all leasing and tenant relations), 1 assistant, and myself (client management, maintenance, project management, and general management of the business).  We also do a lot of rehabbing for our clients, and our own projects, so my time is mostly spent on those projects. 

I'm thinking of hiring a maintenance manager, but not sure if that is the right direction. We will most likely be managing 250 properties by mid 2018. 

Any advice would be appreciated.
