Empowering Futures:
Your Vision, Our Expertise

Celebrating 10 years in business on Feb 1, 2024! After fourteen years as a licensed real estate salesperson in DC, Virginia and Maryland, and noodling with the idea of being a business owner for some time, I elected to open my very own brokerage house.  Effective February 1, 2014, the doors of Di Renzo Realty, LLC were opened for business! My firm is licensed as a Real Estate Brokerage and I am licensed as a Principal Broker in the District of Columbia, The Commonwealth of Virgina and State of Maryland.

Current Responsibilities

I own and operate Di Renzo Realty, LLC™, which is based in Washington, DC. Entering my twenty third (23rd) year of experience in the commercial real estate industry, my focus has always been on Tenant Representation. My approach to negotiating commercial leases revolves around the strategy of, 'Small, Tall or Nothing At All™. I endeavor to employ this philosophy in all my brokerage work.

In addition to brokering commercial real estate transactions throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area, my work includes both national and international assignments. Nationally, I have represented clients throughout 25+ cities across the country while internationally, I have supported projects in the South American, Asia-Pacific and European regions. My expertise affords me the opportunity to bridge the gap between a complex real estate transaction and my client’s strategic real estate requirements.

Experience

I have provided representation to a wide-variety of users to include law firms, not-for-profits, trade associations, lobbying firms, corporations and retailers.

Education and Affiliations

I hail from Philadelphia, PA (West Philly!) where I attended The West Philadelphia Catholic High School for Boys and was taught by the Christian Brothers (St. Jean-Baptiste de la Salle). I furthered my education by earning a BBA, as well as studying music, from the George Washington University in Washington, DC. I also serve on an advisory committee, the GWU REFA (Real Estate and Finance Alliance) whereby I have engaged at least a dozen undergraduate interns to introduce students to the real estate brokerage industry and to support the business at Di Renzo Realty™.

Outside of real estate, I officiated NCAA Men’s Division I Basketball and have worked with several local charities such as the Men's Event to support Cancer Research at Georgetown's Lombardi Cancer Institute, Freddie Mac’s Hoops for the Homeless, Hoop Dreams Scholarship Fund, the Golden Child Awards Foundation, and the BB&T Classic, which supports the Children’s Charities Foundation where I also serve on the Board of Directors (www.ccfdc.org).
