Matthews Opens Bethesda Office to Expand DC Presence
Matthews announced the opening of its new office located at 4800 Montgomery Lane in Bethesda, Maryland. The 5,239-square-foot space will expand the firm’s presence in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area.
Matthews has held a long-standing track record in the Mid-Atlantic and first established its local presence in Washington, D.C. with the hires of Senior Vice President & Director Josh Ein in 2023 and Executive Vice President Ed Laycox in 2025. Together, the two seasoned veterans have sold over 400 transactions totaling $2 billion across single-tenant and multi-tenant retail. Last year, the firm expanded its presence with the addition of Senior Associate Ethan Edmiston. Edminston will lead the government services division, focusing on properties leased to county, state, and federal agencies.
“Opening our Bethesda office marks a pivotal milestone in our continued growth in Washington, D.C., the DMV, and the broader Mid-Atlantic,” Perkins said. The office space is located one block west of the Red Line station and just north of Bethesda Row.
