Washington, D.C.

Welcome to the RELA DC Chapter!  RELA’s Washington DC chapter provides an invigorating platform for the area’s commercial real estate lenders to learn, network and share ideas with their colleagues and peers.  Our dedicated Board coordinates an unrivaled real estate event schedule encompassing different aspects of commercial real estate with a lender’s viewpoint at its foundation.  The programming includes insightful and& educational speaker events, engaging project tours and various networking opportunities.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our past speakers, panelists and Sponsors whose support has been instrumental to DC RELA’s success over the years.  We are especially grateful to the law firms of Venable and Troutman Pepper Locke, as well as Blake Real Estate Valuation & Consulting for their continued support of our DC Chapter.

DC RELA has been fortunate to have a strong long term membership base and we will continue to strive to reach and include banks of all sizes throughout the Greater Washington market.

Please feel free to contact me or any of your organization’s RELA representatives if you have any questions or ideas on how to continue improving our organization.

I am honored to serve as the DC Chapter President and look forward to this 2025-2026 year.  Thank you for supporting RELA!
