What CORPIQ does

CORPIQ (Corporation des propriétaires immobiliers du Québec inc.) is a Quebec-based non-profit association founded in 1980 that represents, supports, and defends the interests of residential rental property owners in the province. Operating under the tagline 'La voix des proprios' (The voice of landlords), the organization serves more than 30,000 individual landlords and professional property managers through four regional offices (Montreal, Quebec City, St-Jérôme, Sherbrooke) and a comprehensive digital platform at corpiq.com. Its member base collectively houses over 600,000 households across Quebec.

The organization operates an integrated suite of proprietary digital tools covering the full landlord workflow: ProprioEnquête (tenant screening and credit verification), ProprioLocation (rental listing platform), Pronotif (electronic legal notification), an electronic lease creation and signing platform, and a centralized property management software for operations, tenant lifecycle, and accounting. Additional sub-brands target adjacent segments including CondoExpert (condominium management), Proprio Expert (expert advisory), and Proprio Investissement/Zoom-Imm (real estate investment). These tools sit alongside content and community assets including the PROPRIO magazine, a podcast, training programs, and 100+ events per year, capped by the annual IMMO conference.

CORPIQ's revenue model is anchored on recurring annual membership subscriptions starting at $19.50/month (tax-deductible), generating predictable recurring revenue across a distributed SMB base. Supplementary revenue is derived from a 200+ partner company discount network (with flagship relationships including RONA/Lowe's Canada since 1997 and Bell), specialized service fees, event monetization, and the proprietary tool stack. The organization is governed by a Board of Directors composed of industry professionals, led since 2024 by CEO Nathalie Mercier, with no external private equity or venture capital backing identified in the source data.

Closest direct analogue to CORPIQ in the Canadian market, serving a parallel advocacy, training, and member-services mission in a different province.
