In this video, Peter Lohmann announces that NARPM's annual convention and trade show, NARPM Nationals, will take place in October at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas, highlighting its importance for learning and networking in the property‑management industry. He urges members to submit speaker proposals by the July 6 deadline, emphasizing that the event seeks practitioner‑to‑practitioner content rather than vendor pitches. Lohmann then details a major leadership transition: CEO Troy Garrett has resigned effective immediately, coinciding with NARPM’s shift from OMG to MCI as its association‑management partner. A nationwide search for a new executive director (the title replacing CEO) is underway, expected to take three to four months, meaning the October convention will occur amid leadership and partner changes. He advises viewers to monitor NARPM’s website for registration updates. Finally, he shares breaking news that the NARPM Broker Owner Conference will also be held in Las Vegas, scheduled for April 27‑29 at the Aria, and invites attendees to that event.

NARPM Nationals. So NARPM's annual convention and trade show, most of you know, is happening in October in Mandalay Bay in Vegas. This is one of the biggest events of the year for our industry. There's learning, networking, the works. I wanna flag a couple things. First, the call for speakers closes really soon. The deadline is July 6th. So if you've got something we're saying, whether it's proven strategies, operational systems, tech insights, AI, leadership, whatever you've got going on, this is your shot to get in front of your peers from across the country. NARPM specifically wants practitioners teaching practitioners. They don't do the pay-to-play thing where vendors just pitch from the stage, which I like. Submit your proposal before July 6th. I'll put that link in the description. Second of all, NARPM is in the middle of a significant leadership transition. You, you may have seen my coverage in the newsletter here. Troy Garrett, the current CEO, recently resigned effective immediately. Now, this wasn't entirely out of nowhere. NARPM was already in the process of transitioning from OMG to MCI as their association management partner in new year, and it sounds like Troy basically just decided he didn't want to wait around for that. So NARPM has announced they've already begun a nationwide search for their next executive director. That's going to be the new title for what was formerly the CEO in partnership with their new partner, MCI. They're estimating 3 to 4 months for that process. And that makes October's convention interesting. You're going to have either new leadership in place or on the way, a new association management partner coming online and a roomful of people trying to figure out what that all means. So keep an eye on NARPM's website for the registration info. And again, I'll put a link in the description. As we go to record this, we just received news that NARPM's Broker Owner Conference is also going to be in Vegas. We didn't know the date or the location until now, and, and we just found out it's gonna be April 27th to the 29th at the Aria in Vegas, and I will see you there.
