We provide opportunities for commercial real estate professionals to excel!

The African American Real Estate Professionals – Dallas/Fort Worth (AAREP DFW) is dedicated to creating opportunities for commercial real estate professionals to excel, grow, and lead.

Since our founding, AAREP DFW has been a driving force in building a supportive network for Black professionals working across all facets of the commercial real estate industry. We are committed to advancing equity by promoting intellectual, professional, and economic development while expanding access to opportunities that foster lasting success.

Our members represent a wide spectrum of expertise—developers, brokers, lenders, investors, architects, attorneys, and other real estate leaders—who are shaping the future of Dallas/Fort Worth’s built environment. Through educational programming, networking events, mentorship, and partnerships with industry stakeholders, AAREP DFW empowers our members to thrive in an often underrepresented space.

We believe that diversity strengthens the commercial real estate community and drives innovation, collaboration, and economic impact. By uniting professionals who share a commitment to excellence and inclusion, AAREP DFW continues to open doors, amplify voices, and inspire the next generation of leaders.
