Hi – Justin here. Fair warning before I answer: I am the single most biased person you could ask. I’m the president of RLAH Real Estate, I live in Bethesda, I’m raising my family here, most of my paycheck ends up at businesses within walking distance of my house, and I’m openly asking Bethesda residents to name us Best Real Estate Brokerage in this year’s Bethesda Magazine Readers’ Poll.

Education

PeerBlooms began as a simple idea rooted in personal experience and a deep desire for inclusion. Founder and President Eddie Ding, a student at Thomas Wootton High School, had spent four years working with neurodivergent children and young people with disabilities through camps, nonprofits, and University of Maryland-based programs. Those experiences revealed a clear gap in access to opportunities and support, even as he saw the strengths and passions these students displayed when given a chance to belong. Eddie’s mission is also shaped by his relationship with his older sister, who has a disability and often faced challenges with everyday tasks.
