Washington DC RE Networking

Making the move to DC in a couple of months, and looking for some people or groups to network with as I am on the job hunt. Have a few contacts in the area but would love some more as I make my move up there.

A little background I am a Portfolio Manager/Underwriter for a smaller bank with about 4 yrs experience. Any advice/leads/contacts would be awesome, as I know contacts are more likely for me to land a job.

YREP DC is good. ULI is solid. The multifamily community there is good and does quarterly happy hours at Provision 14 (corner of 14th & V). CREFC has a ton of events locally since you're on the lending side.

Walker & Dunlop is headquartered in the DMV and would be a good place to work, and I feel like they are always hiring (a good thing because they're growing).

Those are my quick thoughts from having lived there for a few years. Good luck; it's a great town.
