Young professionals are the future of the real estate business. But in a field where the average age is 52, younger real estate practitioners often strive for a way to connect with each other and tap into valuable resources that will help them succeed in business.

REALTOR® Magazine launched the Young Professionals Network in 2006 as a way to help the younger generation of REALTORS® build a stronger link with the magazine and the real estate industry, in general.
Through national networking events, a lively blog, and an information-packed Web site, REALTOR® Magazine’s Young Professionals Network gives its members the tools they need toadvance their careers — and have fun in the process!

In 2009, YPN National began to approve local & state chapter of the organization.  At the time of application, there were six approved YPN chapters nationally – with only two chapters along the eastern seaboard.

The DC Metro Area chapter of the Young Professionals Network serves members of GCAAR and/or real estate professionals operating in the following counties:

• Montgomery County, MD
• Prince George’s County, MD
• District of Columbia
• Arlington County, VA
• Fairfax County, VA
