Women are a vital part of the housing industry – moving markets and encouraging those around them. HousingWire’s Women of Influence award honors these women.
This is HousingWire’s ninth annual installment celebrating the industry’s leading women and their commitment to moving the U.S. housing economy forward. The award has become an industry standard, and the leaders who make our list each year represent an elite and special group. The Women of Influence award honors the shapers, the changers, the ones who are making a difference in the housing industry and paving the path for others to follow. This year includes women from all across the housing spectrum. Our cover this year features three women moving markets forward in the real estate industry.
