2025 Conference Roundup
Here are some worthwhile national property management conferences you should know about coming up in 2025. None of these are sponsored or affiliate links; just sharing FYI.
Rentvine is hosting their user conference next month in Tampa. Looks awesome.
Strategic PM / RentScale are hosting a Summit for PM owners & execs in Ft Lauderdale this fall. This is a new event with a great speaker lineup.
Property Meld is hosting the Maintenance Summit (MX Summit) in September, in their hometown of Rapid City, SD. We’re sending several team members and I’m speaking.
AppFolio is hosting the FUTURE industry conference in October, in San Diego. Heard great things about the inaugural event last year. I’m speaking.
NARPM’s largest annual conference is right on the heels of AppFolio’s, taking place in Orlando this year.
It’s technically in early 2026, but you should check out the PM Systems Conference. Consistently gets rave reviews.
Did I miss any big ones? Let me know!

Closing Thought
There aren't many Ws in property management, but here's one
(1) Applicant reaches out to you a few days after you list unit, says "unit is too expensive", negotiates
(2) You lease the unit out a few days later, at asking
(3) Applicant reaches out again, asking about availability— BarryRoland19 (@BarryRoland19)
