#ShesInvested: Empowering Women to Build Wealth Through Property
Women are ensuring their financial security like never before. #ShesInvested is a movement designed to empower women with the knowledge, confidence, and opportunities to build long-term wealth through investing in various asset classes.
The Financial Landscape for Women Today
While progress has been made in closing the gender wealth gap, the numbers still tell a concerning story:
- Superannuation Disparity: Australian women retire with, on average, 24% less superannuation than men, a gap largely attributed to career breaks and the persistent gender pay gap.
- Homeownership: Women are less likely than men to own property, despite homeownership being one of the most effective wealth-building strategies.
- Investment Confidence: Research shows that while women are more strategic and risk-aware investors, they often lack the confidence to enter the market as early or as aggressively as their male counterparts.
Women in Property: A Rising Force
The tide is turning. In recent years, women have begun to claim a larger stake in the property market:
- 35% of Australian property investors are women, a number that continues to rise as more women take charge of their financial futures.
- Women are outperforming men in key investment areas, often achieving higher rental yields and showing a preference for long-term, strategic asset accumulation.
- Female-led households are now a major driver of property purchases, particularly in high-growth investment markets.
Why Property? The Path to Financial Independence
For women looking to build wealth, property remains one of the most accessible and stable investment vehicles:
- Passive Income Potential – A well-structured property portfolio generates ongoing cash flow, offering financial security and flexibility.
- Long-Term Growth – Real estate has historically shown strong capital appreciation, making it a powerful tool for wealth accumulation.
- Control Over Investments – Unlike other asset classes, property allows investors to be actively involved in decision-making, whether through renovations, lease negotiations, or portfolio expansion.
#ShesInvested: What’s Next?
