More single women are buying homes than ever before! The National Association of Realtor's says that 20% of recent home buyers are women while only 10% are men!
What is happening? Women are becoming more confident and realize that the step-by-step process that was once thought of as the perfect wife/perfect life (school, career, man, house, family) is vanishing.
Our days of pining away worrying we will be spinsters is over. Women realize that they have power and are not afraid to do life the way they want. If another person joins them on the path, great; but it's no longer required.
About 1/4 of the nation's nearly 8 million single mothers spend more than half of their incomes on housing, compared with 1/10 of households headed by single fathers.
So how do we make homes more accessible to the life givers of this planet? Many moms with kids don't think they can get a loan. Education is the first step. So start by contacting someone today or send me a message and I will connect you with someone who can give you the facts. They will tell you what you can afford or what steps you can take to afford it.
It comes down to "when" you can buy a home, not "if".
