Real Property Association of Canada
Real Property Association of Canada
The Real Property Association of Canada (REALpac) is Canada’s senior national industry organization for owners and managers of investment real estate. The members include publicly traded real estate companies, real estate investment trusts, private companies, pension funds, banks, and life insurance companies with investment real estate assets each in excess of $100 million. REALpac’s mission is to bring together Canada’s real property investment leaders to collectively influence public policy, to educate government and the public, and to ensure stable and beneficial real estate capital and property markets in Canada.
Originally named The Canadian Institute of Public Real Estate Companies (CIPREC), it was formed in 1971 by a number of major property developers with equity shares listed on Canadian stock exchanges. In December 1999, the name of the organization was changed to the Canadian Institute of Public and Private Real Estate Companies (CIPPREC) to better represent the make-up of its membership. In early 2005, CIPPREC, further evolved and is now known as the Real Property Association of Canada (REALpac).
