I hadn't given it much thought before, but you just caused to me stocktake on it all.
-Yes, I am researcher, purchaser, deal maker with all our investing, plus the after purchase/build touches. Also manager for nearest IP, and all interaction with our PM's-who are all female.
-My stepsister who has a considerable portfolio is sole researcher, buyer, manager-all decisions, and finance arranger, (where as I like to seek assistance in my lessor strengths, we have a mortgage broker.) Also female.
-Our accountants, 3 female, 1 male.
-Our tradies include a female painter and her team, but when/where I can I like to do it, handyman is well, a man
, plumber who has his daughter as apprentice, (his son left to own bakery delight franchise), electricians a choice of female or male, we use whoever can make it to us soonest, lawyers both gender, the female lawyer is meticulous, same trait in the male lawyer, but he kind of complains a lot, toughest RE I ever dealt with, a female...
-Our (regular) mechanic is a female, has/runs an excellent business here in woop woop, not much of a talker, more the doer. Since she has taken over the local business she has put on extra apprentices the business is building up that much, initially she copped a lot of flack, ridicule, as time progressed people shut up.
) She also invests in some property.
SES and local fire brigade equal gender reps.
-Local cop=female (tough, I think the Xenia of Police! )
-My younger sister is fully responsible for all her investing, likes control over everything, much more in the personality of my stepsister. She has commercial IP's and resi.
-One male friend an investor, he does everything, but has a girlfriend who also came into the relationship with IP's. They keep their IP stuff separate but exchange info.
-A few other female acquaintances I meet, not close friends but do all the investing themselves, some are in a relationship some divorced.
-My buying has been a mixture of buying mostly from male agents, but more and more female agents coming onto the scene too.
-The banking industry, the bit I do deal with, mixture of male/female, my immediate bank manager is female and I used to babysit her.
I enjoy interacting with them all, gender is no concern from my behalf dealing with people, generally speaking I am a people person, I love people and am interested in them, even with business, I will be doing my business and studying the person I am dealing with, (in my head).
My business has been good. I enjoy creating wealth and accumulating assets, people are a part of that journey.
The guys in the background of myself, my family, friends are quite the strong personalities in their own right, but they just enjoy doing other stuff, supporting us girls when, where they can, they just are not particularly driven to be in the forefront with property. They make their own choices which is important to me...the only behaviour we control is our own.
As for colors, I like color obvious for the reason it's easy to find, but blue, pink, purple, yellow
is of no concern....it's more good service, good work..
All interesting though.
