Robert Pinnegar (left) serves as President and CEO of the National Apartment Association, assisted by Amy Groff, SVP of Industry Operations, and Gregory Brown, SVP of Government Affairs.
The National Apartment Association envisions a world where rental housing is a valued partner in every community. NAA is committed to serving its 160 affiliates, more than 75,000 member companies and the 9.25 million rental housing units they operate globally. NAA's mission is to serve as a trusted, preeminent resource for all stakeholders in the rental housing industry through advocacy, education and collaboration.
The Association also gives back, pledging to improve the world through various philanthropic initiatives undertaken not only by the organization as a whole, but by its generous members as well. NAA is governed by a volunteer board of directors. Committees, task forces and other groups are also established to assist in this governance. These groups work to represent, involve and serve members while providing a framework for educating future leaders of the association. They promote member participation in problem solving and provide a forum for the many interests within the association, utilizing the experience, knowledge and skills of NAA's members.
The current president and chief executive officer leading NAA's efforts is Robert Pinnegar. He heads a large network of industry professionals, researchers and local affiliates, spearheading advocacy and public policy efforts, building strategic partnerships and overseeing the development of innovative resources and educational programs.
Under Pinnegar's watch, NAA has undergone a transformation that included realigning staff and adding an industry operations department, led by Amy Groff. The senior vice president brings more than two decades of experience in property management, most recently as SVP of operations for Kettler.
In addition, NAA undertook an extensive public affairs campaign regarding the passage of tax reform. The organization's efforts generated thousands of letters and emails from NAA's grassroots network to legislators. Building on that success, the association is expanding its advocacy efforts, which is led by senior vice president Greg Brown and his team.
As NAA continues to evolve, Pinnegar will oversee the Washington, DC-based organization's transformation and growth.
