Military Realtor in Dupont Circle | Washington, DC
Diana Tommingo
Hello! I'm a military realtor dedicated to helping home buyers and sellers relocating to Dupont Circle in Washington, DC. I specialize in working with Veterans and Military families moving to the District of Columbia, providing valuable insights into neighborhoods.
On June 15, 2022, the VA introduced updated guidelines for the VA Loan Benefit. Leveraging my expertise as a seasoned military realtor, I'm here to help navigate you through the ins and outs of buying a home under these new rules. If you need support with a VA Assumption, I've got the experience to make the process smooth sailing for you.
My priority is delivering exceptional service, regardless of the sales price, to all service members. I have a deep understanding of neighborhoods ideal for military families and excel at finding homes that match both your budget and lifestyle. I understand the importance of meeting PCS deadlines and BAH rates.
My husband, a retired Major (U. S. Marine Corps) and the Director of the Mayor's Office of Veterans Affairs for the District of Columbia (2019-2023), brings a wealth of knowledge to my work. I am proud to work with members of the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force, and Coast Guard. My real estate services include:

Living in Dupont Circle offers a vibrant and inclusive urban experience, notable for its status as an LGBTQ+ neighborhood. Steeped in history and culture, Dupont Circle has long been a hub for the LGBTQ+ community, offering a welcoming and diverse environment.
One of the defining features of Dupont Circle is its lively social scene. The neighborhood boasts a plethora of LGBTQ+-friendly bars, clubs, and restaurants, making it a popular destination for nightlife and socializing. From iconic establishments like JR's Bar & Grill to chic lounges like Dupont Italian Kitchen, there's something for everyone in Dupont Circle's LGBTQ+ scene.
In addition to its nightlife, Dupont Circle is also known for its cultural attractions. The neighborhood is home to several art galleries, including the Phillips Collection, one of the country's oldest and most celebrated private art museums.

The Dupont Circle High Heel Race is a cherished annual event in Washington, D.C., that celebrates creativity, inclusivity, and, of course, fabulous footwear. Held each year in late October, the race sees participants wearing their most impressive high heels and race down 17th Street NW in Dupont Circle, much to the delight of spectators. The race has its origins in a spontaneous event that took place in 1986 when a group of drag queens challenged each other to a race down 17th Street. Over the years, the race has grown into a beloved tradition, attracting thousands of spectators and participants from the LGBTQ+ community and beyond.
