OPTECH 2026

November 16-18, 2026
Las Vegas, NV


Save the Date! OPTECH 2026 is the premier event for innovation in rental housing operations, technology, marketing, and data. 

For over 25 years, OPTECH has been the place where all aspects of operations and technology have come together. 

Designed exclusively for RETTC members, OPTECH brings together operators, innovators, and technology leaders for real-world conversations about what’s actually working across multifamily. From AI and automation to cybersecurity, customer experience, and policy trends, OPTECH is where today’s ideas become tomorrow’s business strategy.

OPTECH is where the industry’s leaders get real.

  • Operators compare notes on what’s actually working—and where they’re stuck—so they don’t have to solve the same problems alone

  • New ideas and solutions are on display everywhere—from casual conversations in the hallway to more polished storefronts on the vibrant expo floor 

  • The industry gets ahead of policy and regulatory shifts early—and starts figuring out together what to do about them

  • Conversations go deeper on data, systems, and integrations to pinpoint where real progress (and real friction) lives

  • Technology partners show up to listen, learn, and contribute in ways that align with how operators actually work 

Featured Keynote

We’re excited to announce our first keynote speaker. Known for his dynamic perspective on leadership, strategy, and navigating change, Eric brings an engaging and thought-provoking lens to how organizations adapt and perform in rapidly evolving environments.
