MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS

ARLA offers tremendous benefits and ensures its members are well informed with respect to government legislation, market trends, education and networking opportunities. We have an array of professional landlord forms and notices available for purchase, to help streamline and standardize rental housing business practices for all landlords in Alberta.
 
ARLA offers Educational Seminars & Webinars and brings in guest speakers of interest at monthly general meeting luncheons.  ARLA also offers an online course on the Residential Tenancies Act. 
 
We host events throughout the year and ensure our members are aware of them in advance. If you don’t live in Edmonton, you can plan ahead to join us on a specific day or join us for one of our Webinars! We also update our members on issues by providing bi-weekly broadcasts. 

Our membership is comprised of the Property Management sector, from small end to large end owners/operators, public sector and not for profit associations as well as the Service Industry. Our membership has units throughout Alberta. Currently we have over 300 members comprised of both Professional Members and Preferred Service Members. The more members ARLA represents the stronger the Voice of the Residential Rental Industry will have with respect to issues affecting the Multi Family Rental Industry.
 
We continue to support our membership by seeking out further members that can help support the industry. We continue to stay informed and up to date on all levels of government and the issues that will affect the multifamily industry. We continue to advocate with these governments on the behalf of our membership. ARLA contributes annually to a Political Action Reserve Fund (PAR) for lobbying issues that may be required. We continue to seek further benefits that will bring our members together to support each other.  We continue to support our members with their concerns and issues. 
 
​It is through the support of our members that we can offer so much valuable information and services to the Residential Rental Industry in Edmonton and across Alberta.

Networking is an essential part of building wealth! 
"I commend the work your organization does to support residential landlords in Alberta, especially now during an unprecedented global health crisis.  I appreciated the opportunity to join the conversation on April 9, 2020 with Honourable Josephine Pon, Minister of Seniors and Housing to discuss your concerns.  Following the teleconference, I provided direction to my staff to connect with you to obtain specific information on the financial pressures landlords face as a result of rent arrears, shortfalls and payment arrangements.  I believe working with our stakeholders will build a deeper understanding of the challenges faced by all Albertans, including landlords and tenants".
