The 2021 Inc. 5000 rankings are based on percentage revenue growth when comparing 2017 and 2020. KWPMC will be recognized in the magazine’s September issue.

This national recognition follows KWPMC being featured on the Inc. 5000 Regionals list of Florida’s fastest-growing private companies for the second straight year. The company was No. 199 on the 2021 list – an impressive step-up from No. 227 on the 2020 list.

Company co-founders Paul Kaplan and Robert White started KWPMC in 2004 and built it into an industry powerhouse, successfully competing against established companies that have been around for decades. KWPMC now has more than 1,850 employees and 90,000 units across 300 communities under management.

“This year’s inclusion on the Inc. 5000 list is especially meaningful,” White said. “Throughout last year, and continuing well into 2021, our top priority has been keeping residents and staff safe amid this unprecedented public health crisis. We are proud to have simultaneously accomplished important growth objectives and expanded our team.”

The leadership within KWPMC has created a culture that empowers people of all ethnicities and backgrounds to grow alongside the company. After opening 2021 by promoting four instrumental executives as new partners, the company now has a total of 12 partners, with equal parts male and female partners.

“We started KWPMC with the belief that if we built the right team, we could take the level of property management quality, accounting expertise and service to new heights,” Kaplan said. “Our incredible people made that possible and have us well-positioned to keep growing in the years to come.”

Locally, KWPMC is again a finalist for the South Florida Business Journal’s annual Business of the Year awards. The company will be recognized during an Oct. 21 event in Miami.
