Mayor Adrian Fenty has rebranded the Office of Property Management as the “Department of Real Estate Services,” contending its responsibilities are broader than what its current name implies.

“Given the breadth of the agency activities and the high degree of professionalism displayed by staff in their respective areas of expertise, it is only appropriate that the true scope and nature of the agency’s undertakings be reflected in the agency’s name,” Department Director Robin-Eve Jasper said in a statement.
