Paul Votto

“Home”.

The word conjures up images of a place of warmth, security, and happiness. It is our castle. Our respite from the “outside world”. A place to relax, enjoy friends and family, and, live the life we want to live, free of fear or intrusion.

As housing management professionals, we help to turn those images into reality. And we do it every day. It is a noble profession. At NCHM we are honored to be a part of it.

Paul Votto has been affiliated with NCHM since 1981, serving as its Executive Vice President until 1987 and then in a variety of capacities throughout his subsequent private sector career, including on its Board of Directors and as a lecturer and consultant. Paul rejoined the staff on a full-time basis in 2013 as National Director of Housing Programs and was appointed President in February 2018.

Paul has more than thirty years’ experience in property management and real estate development.
