RealManage Named to Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Companies List for Ninth Time

Ninth-time honor reflects company-wide growth driven by close engagement with community association managers and continued investment in growing markets

PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--RealManage, one of the country’s leading community association management companies, today announced it has been named to the 2026 Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America for the ninth time. The Inc. 5000 recognizes independent businesses demonstrating sustained growth and momentum. RealManage’s ninth inclusion reflects the company’s sustained business growth and continued investment in its people, operations, technology, and ability to deliver great value to more communities across the U.S. as the community association management industry grows.

“This recognition belongs to our entire team,” said Jose Costa, CEO of RealManage. “Our associates work incredibly hard every day, and our community association managers bring firsthand insight from their work with boards and residents. Listening to their perspectives and the needs of our clients helps us strengthen how we operate, deliver great value, respond to changes in the market, and grow with purpose.”

Over the past year, RealManage has focused on strengthening its operations and building from within through strategic executive appointments, greater opportunities for associate input, and continued support for CAMs through training, certification pathways, industry-leading technology, and its CAM Support Center. Insights from CAMs and clients help inform company priorities, while its recent third consecutive Great Place To Work® Certification, based on direct associate feedback, reflects its continued investment in the people behind its growth. Costa, who was appointed CEO in June, is helping build on that foundation and accelerate the company’s next phase.

“Community associations are evolving, so our innovation must keep pace,” said Costa. “We are listening closely to CAMs and clients as we consider where to focus next, whether that means expanding our technology and services or bringing RealManage’s support to more markets. This recognition further validates this approach, the strength of the company we have built, and the opportunities ahead of us.”

Companies on the 2026 Inc. 5000 are ranked according to percentage revenue growth from 2022 to 2025. To qualify, companies must have been founded and generating revenue by March 31, 2022. They must be U.S.-based, privately held, for-profit, and independent—not subsidiaries or divisions of other companies—as of December 31, 2025.

Today, RealManage supports more than 3,500 communities and 2.3 million residents through more than 60 offices nationwide. To learn more about RealManage, visit RealManage.com. For the full Inc. 5000 list, company profiles, and a searchable database by industry and location, visit www.inc.com.
