🐾 PS - BUY THE HOME YOUR DOG WANTS.

Let's talk about a day in the life of a real estate agent: in short, there is no typical day! But there is a lot that goes on beyond the for sale sign, including: ✨ Meeting with buyers and sellers to understand their goals and priorities ✨ Writing offers for my buyer clients! ✨ Showing homes for my sellers -- I'm kind of an expert at opening doors! 😉 ✨ Searching the MLS -- whether it's to find comps for my sellers or potential homes for my buyers, I spend A LOT of time on the Multiple Listing Service! ✨ Shopping for closing gifts - one of my favorite parts is visiting my clients in their new home and dropping off a closing gift! ⁠
⁠
Tell me: what is the most helpful thing your agent did for you during your last home sale or purchase?

In a word: Meh. You’ve probably heard whispers about rising interest rates and about how you should be scared of them. But when you look at the history of interest rates, we’re still seeing some of the lowest rates ever right now. Your energy is much better spent finding the perfect house, boosting your credit score, or saving up for a larger down payment. While a low interest rate is helpful, it’s just one part of the puzzle when it comes to real estate. When you see the headlines blaring about rising interest rates, don’t freak out. They’re one thing you can’t really control, and there’s a whole slew of things that you can!⁠

✨ 10 Facts about Women in Real Estate:⁠
⁠
1. Women have been part of the real estate industry since its beginning in the late 1700s. But in the early days, they pretty much only got to perform admin duties. But, by the late 1800s, women slowly started to move into the roles of brokers and agents.⁠
⁠
2. According to the National Association of REALTORS® history of women in real estate, when the Association first started in 1908, its membership was entirely male, despite 3,000 women working as brokers nationally. ⁠
⁠
3. NAR's first female member joined in 1910. She was a broker from Seattle, Washington named Corrine Simpson. ⁠
⁠
4. While NAR didn't bar women from joining, most local Associations did. Until the 1950s women were also restricted from being part of real estate boards. For these reasons, the Women's Council of REALTORS® was established in 1938.⁠
⁠
5. By 1978, women made up the majority of NAR's membership.⁠
⁠
6. Single women are 2x more likely to buy homes than single men!⁠
⁠
7. 2/3 of REALTORS® helping homebuyers are women. ⁠
⁠
8. According to NAR, 67% of all REALTORS® are female.⁠
⁠
9. Despite making up the majority of the industry, women don't often make it into executive positions. According to the Urban Land Institute’s 2015 survey of women in leadership, only 14% of real estate CEOs were women, contributing to the wage gap in the industry.⁠
⁠
10. I am proud to empower women in real estate as a female Big Island real estate agent powered by my Hawaii Life female Broker in Charge and female Principal Broker.⁠
