What We Do

Real Estate, as an industry, is far reaching and touches the lives of every type of person. As an industry, we therefore have a responsibility to be reflective of the communities that we impact and ultimately serve.

There are many ways in which our industry falls short of this responsibility, but we at BWRE want to start by addressing the issue of under representation of diversity by creating spaces for Black Women to Grow, deepen Relationships, Belong, and have greater Visibility .
