Marin Real Estate Pulse

As the recent report, Buying For Themselves: An Analysis of Unmarried Female Home Buyers by Rachel Bogardus Drew for the Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University points out, single female homebuyers as a group have several characteristics that differentiate them from their unmarried male counterparts and married couples. Among those that we mentioned earlier are that they are older, have lower incomes, and a higher percentage of minorities in their ranks.

Resourceful real estate agents and mortgage brokers as well as builders will doubtlessly see a lot of possibilities for developing a marketing niche among single women home buyers.
