DC’s Primaries, the Budget and Upcoming Legislation
July 15th at 11am EST
I'm excited to welcome Shawn Hilgendorf, DCAR's Government Affairs Director, for a special discussion focused on the latest developments affecting housing providers, investors, and rental property owners throughout the District.
Together, we'll break down:
- The results of DC's recent primary elections and what they may mean for housing policy moving forward
- Key highlights from the Mayor's proposed budget, including important wins for the real estate community and what didn't make the final cut
- Pending and proposed legislation that could impact rental housing providers, investors, and property managers
- DCAR's advocacy efforts and how industry stakeholders are working to shape future housing policy
- What property owners should be watching over the coming months—and how to prepare for potential changes
Whether you own a single condo, a small portfolio, or multiple investment properties, this session will provide valuable insight into the policies, politics, and legislation shaping the future of housing in Washington, DC.
Bring your questions. This will be one of the most informative and timely discussions of the year.
