Description

Women have dominated the real estate industry in recent years, but it definitely didn't start out that way. For a long time women couldn't buy or own property in their name. They couldn't join the National Association of Realtors. They couldn't get financing without their husband. 

There a handful of women we highlight in this episode who said f*ck you to the patriarchy and made it possible for women to take over in the real estate industry today. However, the facts and figures still show a disparity between the payoff of owning real estate for men and women. Single women have bought more homes than sinlge men every year since at least 1981, but their homes are somehow worth less. I know... it pisses us off too. 

Here's just a few of the early pioneers who defied societal norms:

Corrine Simpson

Catherine Bauer

Ebby Halliday

Dorcas Helfant-Browning

Bridget "Biddy" Mason
