Membership Pricing Update
We’re grateful to all our members for supporting Hapco Philadelphia. Your support helps us provide resources, advocacy, and services that strengthen Philadelphia’s rental property community.
For many years, we were able to keep membership fees low because a significant portion of our revenue came from our eviction service. That revenue has decreased, and it no longer offsets operating costs the way it once did. To continue offering the services our members rely on, the annual membership fee will increase from $175 to $190, effective January 1, 2026. Members who wish to renew at the current rate may do so before December 31, 2025.
We appreciate your understanding and continued support. For questions, contact us at 215-684-1684 or hapcooffice@hapcophiladelphia.com.
New Philadelphia Move In Affordability Law Now in Effect

Landlords may charge only one application fee per tenant, even if they apply to multiple units.
