when: 2026.02.25., Wednesday - 2026.03.26., Thursday

Between February 25 and March 26, 2026, THT’s annual spring conference tour on lawful, value-boosting condominium operations rolls into six regional cities and Budapest. The agenda goes well beyond the usual technical, legal, and accounting topics, adding mental health, task management systems, and a roundtable with major insurers asking a blunt question: is your condominium properly insured?

Subscribers can pick up THT’s brand-new professional handbook free at any stop: “Lawful and Value-Enhancing Operation of Condominiums – Handbook of Maintenance and Inspection Obligations 2026.” It’s a packed program this year, starting earlier than usual at 9:30 a.m. everywhere to fit in a surge of expert-backed content designed to make life easier for condo managers and representatives.

Registration for all locations is open now on tht.hu under Conferences. Attendance requires an advance application and the QR-code ticket sent in the confirmation email. The THT team is betting on record turnout—and nonstop audience questions—because in a world moving this fast, timely information is priceless.

Free Book: New Rules for Pick-Up

The 2026 professional volume—on sale commercially for about USD 54.90—will be available free only to participants who pre-register, attend in person, fill out the onsite data form, accept data processing, and hold a valid annual THT professional subscription. One free copy per subscription. Guests accompanying a registrant will receive a free book only if they personally hold a valid annual THT subscription.

Seven Cities, One Goal

Regional stops feature more than 20 exhibitors and nearly as many high-caliber talks—unprecedented outside the capital. Beyond the core legal, technical, and accounting content, sessions dive into mental hygiene in condominium communities and management professions, hands-on task management platforms, and a candid insurer roundtable to expose gaps in building coverage.

What’s On the Agenda

Kickoffs introduce financial solutions tailored for condominiums and housing cooperatives from banking experts. A joint THT–MITOE–Semmelweis University project tackles mental health in condo life and among property managers, spotlighting burnout risks and practical support.

Technical deep dives range from rethinking shared flue systems—KREA2+ promises a condominium-ready overhaul—to why postponing vertical pipe stack replacements is a bad idea both health-wise and financially. Facility data is front and center too: remote meter reading obligations, deadlines, and lessons learned from the TKM 2025 grant program are unpacked for managers who need to comply without chaos.

Maintenance essentials get an operator’s-eye view: flat roof waterproofing and renovation “the day before tomorrow” to stay ahead of leaks and life-cycle costs. Fire safety gets a reality check: a “false sense of security” can mask serious risks, and experts explain where compliance typically fails. Waste management comes with a two-parter: the condominium’s role in Hungary’s evolving system, plus practical guidance on collecting kitchen green and food waste in multiunit buildings.

Data turns into savings with district heating: how to mine district heating (távhő) data for real energy reductions. Digital operations step up with eHÁZ and AI—how to manage a building smarter in 2026. A condo task management platform demo shows how to track issues, route work, and keep residents informed in one place.

Legal, Audit, and Insurance Real Talk

Auditors’ duties in condominium life are broken down by a forensic accounting expert, clarifying where oversight begins and ends. The legal track zooms in on the failure points of the E-ING registry and how those misfires hit condo operations day to day—what paperwork snarls, how to navigate them, and what managers can do now to avoid downstream problems.

One of the tour’s headline moments is the insurers’ roundtable with Alfa Vienna Insurance Group Biztosító Zrt., Allianz Hungária Zrt., and Netrisk Magyarország Kft. The message: many condominiums carry policies that won’t hold up when trouble hits. Expect pointed discussion of underinsurance, exclusions, catastrophe exposure, and how to align coverage with real risks and regulatory requirements.

Székesfehérvár Program Snapshot

At the Mercure Székesfehérvár Hotel Magyar Király (8000 Székesfehérvár, Fő Street 10.), the day runs 9:30–15:50. After financial solutions and the mental health project, KREA2+ rewires the shared chimney paradigm. The case for not delaying stack replacements follows, then a live task management system demo. Remote metering compliance takes the stage, followed by a consultation break. The afternoon covers roof waterproofing, fire safety pitfalls, waste and food-scrap collection, energy savings from district heating data, AI-powered eHÁZ workflows, then another consultation. The day closes with auditors’ duties, the insurer roundtable, and the harsh realities of E-ING’s failures before wrap-up.

Győr Program Snapshot

At the Győr-Moson-Sopron Chamber (9000 Győr, Szent István Road 10/A.), the flow is similar, with early legal focus on E-ING’s practical fallout before mental health, roof waterproofing, and waste management. Remote metering obligations anchor late morning, followed after the break by the case for timely stack replacement and the KREA2+ shared chimney solution. District heating data, fire safety risks, task management tools, AI-driven eHÁZ, auditors’ duties, the insurer roundtable, and closing remarks round out the day.

Why It Matters

This tour pulls together what condo managers need most in 2026: clear compliance roadmaps, practical engineering fixes, smarter digital tools, better financial footing, and sharper insurance coverage. Add a professional handbook in hand and direct access to more than 20 exhibitors at regional stops, and it’s a one-day upgrade to keep buildings legal, safer, and genuinely more valuable.

Pros
+
Good for professionals traveling with family: daytime hours (9:30–15:50) leave afternoons/evenings free for sightseeing in Budapest, Szeged, or Debrecen
+
The topic—condo operations, insurance, maintenance—has global relevance, so a U.S. property/HOA nerd will find lots to compare and learn
+
Budapest is internationally well-known and easy for foreign visitors; regional cities like Szeged and Debrecen are smaller but safe, friendly, and offer low-key local vibes
+
No Hungarian required to register online; many Hungarian pros speak some English, and slides often include technical terms you’ll recognize
+
Easy to reach: Budapest venue is metro/tram accessible and rideshare-friendly; highways and trains connect the regional stops, with convenient parking at chambers/hotels
+
Compared with U.S. HOA/condo expos, this dives deeper into legal compliance, district heating data, and EU-style sustainability rules—great “what’s coming next” insight
+
Free pro handbook (worth ~$55) if you pre-register and meet the conditions—nice value add if you’re serious about condo management
Cons
Not really “tourist entertainment”: the agenda is technical and meant for condo managers, so kids will be bored and content skews work, not play
Outside Budapest, the cities are less known to U.S. visitors; tourism infrastructure is thinner and English levels can vary more
Some sessions and Q&A may be Hungarian-first, so without language skills you could miss nuances unless you prep or ask for materials in English
Registration rules (QR code, subscription for free book, data forms) are stricter than many U.S. events and could feel fussy for a casual visitor
