About Us

The Apartment Association of the Panhandle is a local trade association. We are a membership organization that advocates fair housing legislation and high professional standards for the rental housing industry in 26 counties within the Texas panhandle, to include Amarillo, Texas. We provide members with resources, education programs, and legislative information about industry issues. We represent nearly 20,000 units. Members of our association include managers and owners of multi-family housing and residential rental housing, as well as product service companies that provide different products and services benefiting the members of our industry.

When you join the Apartment Association of the Panhandle you are automatically enrolled as a member in both the Texas Apartment Association and the National Apartment Association.

The Texas Apartment Association is comprised of 25 local affiliates throughout the state of Texas. Because of its scope and size, companies involved in this industry are often affected by local, state and federal government actions.

Through the Apartment Association of the Panhandle, your interests concerning building requirements, utilities, taxes and legislation affecting our industry are protected on a local, state, and national level. We help keep you informed of legislation that may or will affect your business.

Our industry’s state interests are represented by the Texas Apartment Association (TAA) and we are represented nationally by the Legislative Program of the National Apartment Association (NAA).

In the past, our legislative efforts have saved companies involved in the multi-housing industry hundreds or thousands of dollars and have provided critical input of government issues.
