The fire took 30 firefighters 20 minutes to control, with the blaze contained to one unit in the block of six.
FRV said the unit suffered extensive damage in the blaze.
The two people who jumped from the window were injured in their fall and treated at the scene.
Another resident was evacuated by firefighters.
