How many units or sites does an average Regional Property Manager oversee?

I'd like to know what your opinion is on staffing as it relates to Regional Property Managers. Also known as District Managers and sometimes Area Vice Presidents. Affordable versus Conventional -- how many sites can one Regional handle? Does it matter how many units are at the site? In my opinion, a site that is small usually requires the same oversight as one that is larger.

Hi, Mel! I'm not sure. Straight up, it depends on the management company. I once was told once a small portfolio reaches more than 500 units, they start entertaining the thought of having a Senior Property Manager who assumes this role of oversight. Once there are 1500+, the move toward a traditional Regional Manager emerges. I can say some sites that have true challenges can take up a lot of a RPM's time, if the onsite team is not quite as skilled as others.
