SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA RENTAL HOUSING INDUSTRY LEADER AND CALRHA MEMBER APPOINTED TO NAA CHAIR

SACRAMENTO, Calif. – Nov. 13 – Today, the California Rental Housing Association (CalRHA) announced Rick Snyder, a former president of the Southern California Rental Housing Association and current CalRHA member, will be installed as the Chair of the National Apartment Association (NAA) on Thursday, November 16. This is the first time since 1960 that this leadership position is filled by California delegation. Snyder begins his year-long term in January 2024 and takes the helm as the industry faces new regulatory challenges at the national level and in a time of historical rental demand.

“I am honored and excited to lead our industry in 2024. With renewed focus on rental housing and the importance of adequate supply, I see a unique opportunity to help our members do what they do best, provide quality rental housing to millions of U.S. renters,” said Rick Snyder, Founder and President, R.A. Snyder Properties, Inc. “A healthy rental housing industry benefits the economy and translates to stronger communities.” Snyder has more than 30 years of real estate experience and has been an avid volunteer for housing.

“Rick excels at being a leader in his business and community and today we at CalRHA, applaud Rick for being the first Californian in more than 70 years to represent us at the national level,” said Earle Vaughan, President, CalRHA. “In today’s complex rental housing industry, property owners often consult each other for advice on how to approach challenging situations and Rick is often one of the first turned to.”

A long-time San Diegan, Snyder received his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from San Diego State University with a major in real estate. He also shares his knowledge as an active expert witness for real estate litigation.
