2022 Property Management Trade Shows and Conferences

February 18, 2024

Looking for the 2023 conference calendar?

As we look ahead to 2022, our team is excited and hopeful to attend as many in-person property management events as possible. While we were still able to meet and connect with many folks in the industry, we’re looking forward to hitting the ground running in the new year. 

So, we compiled a list of 2022 trade shows, expos, and conferences for single family property managers - you might even find a multifamily event on this list as well!

The property management industry continues to grow in 2022

We expect 2022 to be a big year for the property management industry. The pandemic proved extremely challenging to property managers, who were hit especially hard in 2020 with COVID restrictions, tenants who couldn’t pay rent and the eviction moratorium, and migrating renters. 

But by halfway through 2021, the industry had already bounced back and was growing as fast as it had been pre-pandemic. In fact, over the last two years, 73% of property managers have recently acquired new properties - and 86% plan to add new properties over the next two years [Buildium’s 2022 State of the Property Management Industry Report].
