When to reach out to boutiques?

Hi everyone, I am currently a rising sophomore interning at CBRE (top commercial real estate firm) in their Advisory and Transaction Services group for the summer.

I'm wondering when I should start reaching out to boutiques for internship opportunities for summer 2020.

Toward the end of the summer? More toward November-December?

It is never too early to start networking. While it may not be the norm, I spoke to some individuals as early as August of 2016 and kept in touch throughout the year, even though their interview process didn't begin until the winter/spring of 2017. Just making contact and learning about various firms is something you can do whenever you have the time, it is just up to you to maintain the relationship until the interview process occurs.
