How Single Women Are Driving the Housing Market

The real estate market has seen a significant shift in recent years, with single women emerging as one of the most powerful buying forces. Studies show that single women are purchasing homes at nearly twice the rate of single men, proving their commitment to financial independence and long-term stability. But this trend doesn’t come without its challenges—many women are making sacrifices to achieve their homeownership dreams. At Ana Bastas Realty, our woman-led, all-woman team understands these challenges firsthand and is dedicated to guiding single women through every step of their real estate journey.

The Power of Single Women in Real Estate

Single women are prioritizing homeownership more than ever before. Whether it’s for investment purposes, personal security, or simply the pride of owning a home, women are taking the plunge into real estate, often earlier than their married counterparts. Many of these buyers are making strategic financial choices, such as downsizing their lifestyle, delaying vacations, or even working multiple jobs to afford a down payment.

At Ana Bastas Realty, we recognize the sacrifices women make to achieve homeownership. That’s why we focus on educating and empowering our clients with the best market insights, access to pre-construction opportunities, and customized strategies to help them find a home that aligns with their financial and lifestyle goals.

The Challenges Single Women Face in Homeownership

While single women are making waves in the housing market, they often encounter unique obstacles along the way. Affording a mortgage on a single income can be daunting, and navigating the complexities of financing, bidding wars, and market competition can be overwhelming. Additionally, single women may face biases when working with sellers, lenders, or even contractors during the buying and homeownership process.

As a female-led real estate team, we have an intimate understanding of these hurdles. Our approach is not just about finding a property—it’s about creating a roadmap that ensures long-term success. We help our clients access financial resources, negotiate effectively, and connect with trusted mortgage brokers, legal professionals, and home inspectors who respect and prioritize their needs.
