About Our Client

Raising the Roof (RTR) is a nationally registered charity with the primary goal of delivering long term solutions to homelessness in Canada. Previously to 2020 the organization was known for their toque campaign as well as contributions to homelessness awareness and research. In response to the magnitude of today’s homelessness crisis, RTR has pivoted to focus primarily on homelessness prevention through the development and operation of affordable rental housing. Their portfolio has grown significantly since this work began in 2020 with 70 units in operation by the end of 2024 and over 400 units currently under development.

Most of the units in operation this year (55) are located in the GTA. Other communities within which RTR has active development sites or operating units include Orillia, Barrie, Sudbury, Winnipeg and St. John’s. The goal is to one day develop and operate housing across all provinces and territories in Canada.

They operate a mix of market and affordable units across a range of different profiles with corresponding tenant acuity, affordability and levels of support. In each community we serve, RTR forms a partnership with at least one housing provider partner – typically a non-profit group that will refer tenants, provide support services and (sometimes) provide property management services. RTR has some head lease arrangement but predominantly holds leases directly with tenants and hires contractors accordingly to manage the needs of the tenants and real estate operations.
