Washington DC is a wonderful area to live and invest in. The DC area wealth and the job marketās reliance on the federal government insulate us from the economic booms and busts experienced by other areas. Despite the pandemic, D.C.ās median sale prices have risen toĀ $682,500Ā as we end the year. This is an increase of 13.0% compared to July 2019 and 5.0% since June 2020. This strong performance is not an exception. Since 2007, Washington, DCās real estate market experienced a steady appreciation that not quite doubled the price but came close to it. In 2020, along with record high home prices, the number of homes sold is upĀ 20.1%Ā year-over-year. The prices dropped slightly in 2023 but the market remains healthy and the inventory is low – giving the sellers the upper arm.
Many local experts continue to predict the strong market in 2023 while dismissing the real estate bubble concerns. Here are just a couple of opinion pieces.

One of the answers is our local focus. Investing in the DMV area is quite different from investing in Florida or California. Chances are you would not consider working with a real estate agent not specializing in the local market. So why work with a lender who is not familiar with our market and who doesnāt have a clue as to how to manage a rehab project in the nation capital? We operate exclusively in Washington, DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Yet, we are also acutely aware that real estate investor in Washington, DC might face challenges that are dramatically different from challenges facing a Baltimore or Chantilly investor.
This is why we donāt just lend you money – that part is easy. What makes us different is that we make sure that you succeed with each and every transaction we finance. We do it in several ways:
- Pro-actively remove third party biases in determining the after-repair value of your project. In other words, letās have an authentic discussion of how much you can get for your renovated property in the current Washington, DC real estate market.
- We are the experts on buying at foreclosure auctions. If you are considering a property offered for an auction, talk to our managing partner, Kyle Sennott. He is a premier expert in this area.
- We offer a variety of tools created specifically for the DMV market. Take our hard money calculator for a spin to determine your profit, ROI, and possible contribution to the transaction. Or check out our maximum purchase price calculator, a unique and nifty tool that helps set a maximum purchase price based on the minimum amount of profit you are willing to accept.

You also need patience. A lot of it. The DC inventory is tight and competition among investors is severe.
