Since 1985, the Federation of Rental-housing Providers of Ontario (FRPO) has been the voice of Ontario’s multi-family industry and the leading advocate for strong and stable rental housing. FRPO is the largest association in Ontario representing those who own, manage, build and finance, service, and supply residential rental homes. We have led the rental housing industry in Ontario for over 35 years, offering public advocacy, representation and promotion, industry research, standards and best practices, education and training along with marquee industry events and awards. We’re the experts on property management, rental housing regulation and residential tenancies law. Our membership includes a diverse group of rental property owners and managers, from those with one small building or a single rental unit, up to the largest property management firms and institutional owners. Today, FRPO represents more than 2,200 members who own or manage over 350,000 households in every area of Ontario. We also welcome and represent industry partners as members, including service providers, suppliers, and industry consultants. FRPO works to promote a balanced and healthy housing market with a vital rental-housing industry, choice for consumers, adequate government assistance for low-income households, and private sector solutions to rental-housing needs. We will do this through: • Upholding public policies that support the availability of quality housing • Protecting the rights of private sector landlords and property managers • Informative and educational training sessions on regulatory issues and industry best practices • Promoting industry best practices, fair conduct and professional standards of our members • Fostering better communication and information sharing among members • Educating government, the media, and general public on the critical role of the private sector in the supply of well-managed and maintained rental accommodation.
