Real Estate Club

Our Mission

Is to develop the next generation of commercial real estate leaders through hands-on learning and connections with industry professionals and fellow students

The UW Real Estate Club bridges the gap between the classroom and the industry. Through speaker panels, property tours, office visits, technical workshops, and networking events. Students learn how projects and deals take shape, explore different career paths, and meet the people doing the work across the Puget Sound region.

We welcome students from every major and at every stage of their interest in real estate. The industry brings together finance, construction, design, law, and policy, and our club reflects that range of perspectives. Whether you are pursuing a career in commercial real estate or just starting to explore the field, there is a place for you here.

"The Real Estate Club gave me an accessible way to connect with professionals across the industry, leading to relationships and opportunities that have shaped my career. Just as importantly, it introduced me to like-minded peers, helping me leave UW with both a strong professional network and close friends who will grow alongside me in the industry for years to come."

"Throughout my University of Washington Real Estate Club experience, I had countless opportunities to get involved and connect with industry professionals. Club events were a great place to meet leaders in the field, learn from them, and build relationships that lasted beyond the room. That experience set me up for a strong start in real estate, where I now work as an analyst at Greystar."
