Erika Lara

Agent - Licensed in DC/MD/VA

Erika Lara is an ultra rare breed of real estate professional in our nation’s Capital— she’s actually a real “local” who grew up in our area, has a deep, broad, and diverse skillset from her time in the hospitality and healthcare industries which makes her an invaluable asset to her clients, and she;s also a former collegiate soccer athlete which means her grace and poise under pressure are both unmatched and envied.

Born to Salvadoran parents who immigrated to the United States to pursue the American Dream, Erika grew up just a few blocks from our downtown office near Thomas Circle, and later lived in one of DC’s hottest and most dynamic neighborhoods, Petworth.

Erika’s clients are fortunate in that she possesses both invaluable experience from the healthcare industry, where she has a keen eye and an incredible attention to detail, as well as her time in the hospitality industry which allowed her to develop a sharp customer service orientation and commitment to a refined experience for her clients.

She’s eager and excited to share her passion for real estate with anyone who sees how real estate is an important level in creating financial wealth and freedom, but also with anyone who is excited about owning a lovely home in the DC area.  Erika’s clients often remark about how genuine and committed she is and how she’s dedicated to making a positive impact in people’s lives while continuing to grow and learn, both professionally and personally. In her spare time, she gives back to her community and can be found volunteering as a head girl’s soccer coach for a team in Montgomery County, serving as a wish grantor for the Greater Washington Area chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation, or spending time outdoors with family and friends.
