431: Women in Real Estate: Closing the “Investing Gap” and Getting Started

The gender investing gap is real, but it’s not due to women lacking capital. More often than not, women are saving their money rather than investing in real estate and allowing it to grow. As successful women in real estate, today’s guests are here to break down the reasons for this investing gap and how we can work together to close it. In this episode of the BiggerPockets Money podcast, we’re joined by none other than Liz Faircloth and Andresa Guidelli, co-hosts of our sister show, The Real Estate InvestHER Show. Like many novice investors, Liz and Andresa both discovered their love for real estate shortly after reading Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad. Years later, both have amassed their own large portfolios and are committed to helping more women dive into the world of real estate investing. Regardless of gender, there’s something for everyone to take away from this episode. Liz and Andresa share about the unique challenges women investors face today, building your real estate network, and how to find your investing partner. They also deliver some actionable next steps for women who are hesitant to invest, as well as some tips for men who want to be allies for women investors! In This Episode We Cover The global economic impact of women investing their capital The unique advantages and disadvantages women face when investing How to be an ally for women investors in your sphere of influence Actionable next steps for women looking to invest in real estate The importance of community when getting into real estate How to find the perfect partner for your real estate investments And So Much More!
