I get Questions:
I guess this question was was asked in order to test my Googling skills:
Aloha Tim,
I’m interested to know what is the percentage of women vs. mean in real estate?
In Hawaii it’s pretty obvious that there are more females in the industry then but I not sure
Whats the percentage?
Name Withheld
It seems like NAR always has a pretty good idea of who makes up their membership:
Gender of REALTORS®, by Experience, 2007
| All REALTORS® | 41% | 59% |
| Brokers/Broker-Associates | 50% | 50% |
| Sales Agents: Work 40+ hours | 38% | 62% |
| Sales Agents: Work less than 40 hours | 32% | 68% |
The typical REALTOR® is a 51-year-old white female, who has attended college, is married, owns her home, lives there only with her spouse and has a household income of over $100,000.
59% of all REALTORS® are female. The percentage of females in the field has risen from 54 % in 2005. Females account for a larger share of REALTORS® in each age group, except for those over 60 where the gender share shifts to a slight majority for males.
