The Consortium for Housing and Asset Management (CHAM) Annual Asset Management Professionals' Conference is the only professional development and networking event devoted solely to building the capacity of affordable housing asset managers. At dynamic workshops, plenary, roundtables and peer-to-peer sessions, participants share best practices, industry information, emerging issues and trends and explore how today’s managers can best build and maintain sound real estate portfolios that satisfy the "double bottom line."

This year, more than 190 CHAM Conference participants gathered in San Francisco at the historic Westin St. Francis Hotel on Union Square. Enthusiastic housing professionals from 32 states and the District of Columbia – even one from Alaska! – CDC asset managers and finance directors, along with some of their board members and executive directors, state housing authority/agency representatives, LISC, Enterprise and NWA staff, and industry experts – joined CHAM Board members Maria Gutierrez (LISC), David Fromm (Enterprise) and Harold Nassau (NWA) for two days of sessions and the best networking opportunities in the industry.
