KRPOA

 

Formed in 1981, the Kingston Rental Property Owners Association brings together landlords in the Kingston community to promote local and provincial advocacy, peer networking, education on laws and regulations, and to provide an opportunity to share valuable resources and support best practices.

​

Membership is open to landlords, property managers, superintendents, as well as professionals and vendors who supply services to the rental property community.

​

KRPOA member benefits include:

• 8 monthly dinner meetings (Zoom & In-person) that feature interesting and informative guest speakers and the opportunity to network with fellow landlords and suppliers

• Access to rental specific forms including a lease addendum (available for members on our Resource Page)

• Member discounts at area businesses

• We DO NOT carry a list of "bad tenants". You can view public LTB court cases here: https://www.canlii.org

​

The KRPOA is fully managed by a volunteer board consisting entirely of local rental property owners and managers. Board membership is a two-year term. Interested in joining the Board? Contact us!
