What should the first 5 employees you hire be?

[Sean O'Dowd]

This has been a question I've been debating myself recently, and I was wondering what BP's thoughts were:

The situation: Your LLC owns and manages approximately 100 units within the same area. You have enough funds to hire your first 5 employees. Who would you hire?

My thoughts are: 

• two people to handle the day-to-day management of the properties
• a maintenance expert, who can perform most small-scale rehab tasks and property turns (painting, basic electric, carpet cleaning, etc.)
• a marketing individual whose job is to find new tenants and market the property
• a tax person who handles annual taxes, budgeting, and CPA accounting.

What does everyone think??
