A MESSAGE FROM THE AANC PRESIDENT: SEP 2022

Greetings!

As we enter the final quarter of the year and my last few months as the AANC President, there is much to reflect on. Our industry in this great state has continued to persevere despite the roller-coaster ride of the last couple of years.  Challenges such as supply chain issues, escalating expenses, and workplace logistics, have been coupled with the benefits of high occupancies, escalating rent rates, and unprecedented property valuations.  It’s truly been an unprecedented time (both good and bad) in our business.  Absent the resilience, comradery and supportive nature of those in our industry, it could have been a much more difficult time for us all.  I feel a great sense of gratitude for that.  The multifamily industry, more so than any other industry of which I am aware, embodies an attitude of “we’re all in this together.” For that, I am grateful to all of you.

I’d like to take this opportunity to highlight a recent legislative “win” for our industry.  This past July, AANC announced that Governor Roy Cooper signed into law HB 607: Various Court Changes. This bill includes a series of provisions that affect the North Carolina court system, including one of AANC’s offensive legislative goals for the 2022 short session – requiring summary ejectment training for magistrates.

Additionally, we have some exciting events in the coming months that I’d like to encourage you to sign up for. On September 14, we will be holding our Applicant Fraud Alert: Prevent & Cure Webinar and in November we will have our Innovative Social Media & Marketing in 2022 education webinar which will be the fourth and final in the 2022 series.  Please consider joining for one or both of these sessions!
 
Lastly, I’d like to ask you to save the date for our 2023 AANC Education & Legislative Conference which will be held April 24-26, 2023 at the Raleigh Convention Center.  We were thrilled to see everyone in person this past May and look forward to being able to come together again next April! Please note, registration will open a month earlier than normal: 12/1/22. #AANC2023FUTURE

As you prepare for these last few months, please keep in mind that there are still a number of upcoming industry matters and updates that AANC has in store for you. I encourage you to continue reading this publication to help keep you in the know and to further connect you to your fellow industry professionals.
