Your Questions: Answered
-
Why is OPTECH moving to the Real Estate Technology and Transformation Center (RETTC)?
Simple: To stay ahead of what’s coming. As AI, consolidation, and regulatory changes accelerate, OPTECH needs a strategic home that’s built for the future. As NMHC's new real estate affiliate, RETTC provides the community, focus, and mission alignment to keep OPTECH at the center of real estate innovation—not just for a few days a year but all year round.
Put another way, this shift:- Protects OPTECH’s role as the industry’s tech and innovation hub
- Builds a more strategic, mission-driven attendee base
- Elevates the experience for committed apartment operators and solution providers
- Delivers deeper connections and more actionable outcomes
-
Why are you making OPTECH a RETTC members-only event?
Because the future of real estate tech deserves more than just a conference—it deserves a true community. By making OPTECH exclusive to RETTC members, we're adding value and impact by ensuring the room is filled with committed operators and solution providers who are serious about driving positive change not only for their businesses but also the people they serve all year round. It's more about elevating the experience than limiting access.
-
What can I expect now?
- A sharper focus on innovation, tech adoption, and regulatory strategies that drive industry-wide progress.
- Stronger collaboration between owners, operators, and tech partners.
- Real thought leadership opportunities and deeper peer engagement.
- A high-impact gathering of decision-makers who are truly shaping the future of real estate tech.
-
What do I need to do to be able to attend OPTECH 2025?
- Already a RETTC member? You’re good—just make sure your online account is activated. You'll need that to get all the details about OPTECH and complete your event registration.

-
Do I need to be a member of RETTC to exhibit at OPTECH 2025?
Yes—starting in 2025, exhibiting at OPTECH is exclusively available to RETTC member firms. If your company isn’t a member yet, this is a great time to join to access booth sales. New and returning exhibitors are encouraged to connect with our expo team to explore bundled membership and booth options.
-
Do I have to be an NMHC member to join RETTC?
Nope! You don’t have to be an NMHC member to join RETTC. Startups can join for just $2,500/year.

It’s a smart way to stay plugged into the latest in real estate tech, policy, and market trends. Learn more.
