Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act (TOPA)

The DC Office of the Tenant Advocate’s (OTA) Education & Community Outreach team (E&O) offers tenants and tenant associations classes on the TOPA process as well as technical assistance.

Tenants may also review our TOPA tutorials hosted on OTA’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCcnGNk7o4akCu9dK1AS__Og/videos

Tenants living in buildings with five or more units are encouraged to contact OTA and request a TOPA 5(+) class.
