One Maryland family has used TikTok to spread the news about their historic accomplishment.
The Jordan family became the owners of the first Black-owned business park in Fort Washington, MD in August 2022 and recently leveraged social media to bring lots of eyes to their one-of-a-kind acquisition. The complex, bought by The Home Team Realty Group, a Black-owned family-run business, is one part of a larger mission to uplift the community in the area. Wyevetra and Jarriel Jordan run the real estate empire alongside their son, Jarriel Jordan. Jr. and their daughter, who runs their title company.
“If you want something truly dynamic and truly that’s going to empower the community and yourself you have to put a little skin in the game,” said Wyevetra Jordan in an interview with WUSA9 local news. She added that their offer was refused three times before they were actually able to purchase the land. “We wanted to be the ones to show folks you can do this you have to be grounded and have a lot of structure to achieve those goals,” added her husband.
The Fort Washington Business Complex recently found itself going viral when Jarriel Jordan, Jr. posted a video on TikTok detailing the journey of The Home Team Realty Group’s success in such a short time that was picked up by the Instagram account, We Buy Black. The post quickly raked up thousands of likes and even caught the attention of soul singer, Anthony Hamilton, whose music was used as the background in the original video. “When Anthony Hamilton shared the post that’s when I was like, ‘ok now we’re doing things!’” Jarriel, Jr. said in an interview.
The family plans on growing their business and their community outreach through their program Jacobs Ladder as well as through empowering their more than 50 new agents and community partners. They also plan to host training sessions, career fairs, and a national homeownership workshop in the coming months.
Wyevetra & Jarriel Jordan Sr., a married entrepreneurial couple, have made history after purchasing Fort Washington Professional Park in PG County, Maryland. The Jordans, who have been residents in the area for over 40 years, made the historic purchase in August 2022 and are the business park’s first Black owners. They have since renamed it to Fort Washington Business Complex.
The complex currently houses various successful businesses including The Home Team Realty Group LLC, Title House Settlement & Escrow, Jacob’s Ladder Youth Foundation Inc., Adventist HealthCare, GPS Solutions Inc., By Design Interior Styling LLC, and Kristopher’s Village Inc.
Some of these businesses are owned by the Jordans themselves. For example, The Home Team Realty Group LLC, which prides itself on being a community-first brokerage specializing in luxury real estate services, is owned by Wyevetra Jordan.
Also, Jacob’s Ladder Youth Foundation Inc, which faithfully serves the community through educational programming and training, was founded by Jarriel Jordan, Sr. with the mission to educate and reduce the number of juveniles entering and returning to the juvenile justice system.

Wanda Bright is a real estate expert specializing in residential listings and sales in Charles County, MD. I recently had the opportunity to interview her at our favorite Starbucks (on route 228) to find out what she loves about her real estate career.
Wanda explained being a consumer taught her what to expect from this business and ignited her desire to become a licensed realtor. She wanted to learn all that she could about real estate in order to be a reliable resource for sellers and buyers who need representation.
Wanda’s lively personality is evident as she explains the enjoyment she gets from helping people to meet their real estate goals. She gets gratification in knowing that she made a difference in someone’s life by helping them obtain or sell a home.
When asked about the advice she would give others considering a career in real estate, Wanda thoughtfully responded “I would encourage them to learn as much as possible from as many resources as possible. An agent can only be as good as their knowledge of the field. It’s then that you’re able to work best for your client and give the best advice for their consideration.”
I think that is super sound advice! I truly enjoyed getting to know more about one of my colleagues in the business.
