Come to think of it, I have sold more single women homes than single men! Rob Gaschler, Associate Broker, My Home Group

In 47 of 50 states, single women living independently are more likely to own homes. Overall, single women own 2.71 million more homes than single men.

Despite women typically earning 83% of men's pay, they excel in homeownership. LendingTree's analysis suggests that single women are more inclined than single men to make sacrifices for homeownership. Women often exhibit more risk aversion, and owning a home is widely regarded as a secure investment.

Real estate agents also say they’ve noticed more single-female buyers now than in the past. “I’ve definitely sold more homes to women than in prior years,” says Lorraine Hurlbut of Keller Williams in New Jersey, the No. 4 state for female homeowners. “They’re tired of paying high rents that are the equivalent of a mortgage payment. They’re secure in their careers and want to ride the wave of ownership and investment.”

Correction: 10. West Virginia*

Looking southeast over Tempe, about 1950. Lots to see here - Mill Avenue is prominent through the center of the photo. The Tempe Beach swimming pool is in the lower left corner. The original Tempe High School is the three story building on Mill before the Apache curve. the 1948 Discovery Hall is standing on campus, but the 1951 Hayden Mill silos are not there yet. What else?

This is good advice and true.
