A century ago perhaps, real estate involved women only through clerical or peanut office roles but then slowly, things began to change and women became an active part of real estate. Today, agencies like WIRE operating from San Francisco enable women to function professionally as real estate advisors in different capacities.

Today, women are an integral part of real estate set-up as mortgage brokers, sales agents and broker-associates. Though their role is still constricted when it comes to commercial mortgage, they are virtually running the show in terms of off-field residential brokerage.

Statistics suggests that more than half of residential realtors are females. Well! That’s a startling figure for the cynics. In fact, women now more than ever before are entering into tough domains like foreclosure and short sales.  They are the ones actively involved with distressed owners, arranging a loan modification or other means of stop foreclosures.
