CAROP 2023 Summit
Leveraging Creativity in Rent to Own to Boost Your Real Estate Cashflow
Saturday, April 22nd, 9.30 am to 5 pm EST
Mississauga, Ontario.
Great news, we can again be face-to-face this year and reconnect with colleagues old and new at this year’s Rent to Own Summit! There is a virtual option for those not able to make the journey.
The CAROP Rent to Own Summit online or in-person is open to owners, related professionals, and anyone interested in the business of rent to own from across Canada.
If you are seeking to understand and gain insights, education, and best practices in all things rent to own you will not want to miss this event.
The last couple of years have seen heightened interest in Rent to Own and we expect this to continue. The profile of rent to own gained increased exposure with the Federal allocation of $200 million specifically for rent to own and $2 billion to help tackle the country’s housing shortage. This has also become one of the top topics provincially and at the municipal level.
Our exciting lineup of speakers and experts will provide you with the latest news, views and strategies when it comes to rent to own and will enable real estate investors and related professionals at all levels to increase their knowledge and confidence in rent to own.
Be sure to join us either in person or virtually at “Leveraging Creativity in Rent to Own to Boost Your Real Estate Cashflow.”

Elizabeth Kelly
Using RTOs to Maximize your ROI
Elizabeth Kelly bought her first investment property in 2005 – a 2-bedroom condo in Newmarket, Ontario. It seemed really easy, so she bought another one. Next, she and her husband Emmett started buying run-down single-family homes and converting them to duplexes because they found the cash flow was even better. Their next purchase was an 8-bedroom licensed student rooming house in Barrie, Ontario. They now owned and managed 19 doors! Like many new investors, she thought, “The cash flow is amazing, how could things go wrong?!”
Over the years Elizabeth and Emmett, along with their Joint Venture partners, became full-time investors with hundreds of doors in their personal portfolio. They have successfully flipped, wholesaled, duplexed, renovated, and re-financed dozens of properties.
