Abstract
Until the mid-1960‚s most real estate agents selling residential real estate were male. Over the next decade, increasing numbers of women entered the profession, and by 1980, female real estate agents outnumbered male real estate agents. In this paper, I explore some reasons for this increase by comparing female and male residential real estate agents‚ motivations for becoming real estate agents, their satisfaction with the profession, and differences in the amount of hours worked. The results show that the use of time and the amount of hours worked differs significantly for female and male real estate agents, and that female real estate agents believe more strongly than male real estate agents that the sex of the agent matters in residential real estate transactions.
