The Network’s Real Estate Breakfast: The Washington Commanders and Building DC’s Future

Join the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington’s Real Estate Division for an exclusive morning of networking, breakfast, and timely discussion with leaders shaping the future of our region. This special invitation-only program, tailored for Jewish professionals in the real estate sector, will explore how the anticipated return of the Washington Commanders to Washington, DC, is poised to redefine the city’s revitalization efforts and create new opportunities and challenges for the real estate community.

Discover how major developments like the Commanders’ relocation can affect property values, investment prospects, and urban growth in Greater Washington, and learn how collaboration among real estate leaders can drive innovative solutions and lasting value for the region.

We are honored to feature Mark Ein, a renowned Jewish entrepreneur, investor, and philanthropist, and a limited partner in the Washington Commanders ownership group, together with Andy Van Horn, the team’s Director of Real Estate. As part of the ownership team led by Josh Harris that acquired the franchise in 2023, Mark will share a rare insider’s perspective on the Commanders’ vision, its renewed direction, and the broader civic and economic impact on Greater Washington. Complementing this view, Andy will offer an inside look at the team’s redevelopment strategy and the critical role of real estate in shaping the Commanders’ future in DC. Together, their perspectives will provide attendees with unique insights at the intersection of real estate, sports, and regional transformation.
