Restricted to Respected - The Rise of Women in Real Estate

In honor of Women’s History Month, this episode takes a deep dive
into the powerful impact women have had on the real estate
industry. We explore the historical barriers that once prevented
women from owning property, including legal restrictions and
financial discrimination, and how landmark legislation like the
Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974 helped change the game. We
discuss the rise of single women as homebuyers and how they now
outpace single men in homeownership. You'll also hear about the
women who paved the way for real estate investment and
leadership, including pioneers like Dorothy Mae Richardson and
Barbara Corcoran. We break down the challenges women still face
today in terms of access to capital, wage disparities, and
representation in real estate leadership roles. Finally, we look
ahead at the future of women in real estate and how they are
shaping the industry through innovation, investment, and
financial empowerment.
