Quick overview

The 2026 CAM Industry Pulse is research for managers who want a read on what peers are thinking — not an official association vote, and not product marketing. Answers are anonymous.

It takes a few minutes. You will answer seven practical questions drawn from day-to-day portfolio work: burnout, board friction, collections, vendor relationships, election administration, candidate eligibility, and anonymous complaints.

Who it's for
Community association managers and CAM firm professionals across the United States.
Privacy
Secret ballot — responses are anonymous and meant for peer benchmarking only.
Hosted by
Voting runs on ElectoSense. NACARO features the poll as an industry resource.
Not a legal vote
Research only. This is not a vote for any association you manage and is not legal advice.
