Realtors Record By Yvonne Beer, Executive Officer, McHenry County Board of Realtors * Single women have been buying homes as never before and are now a major factor in the real estate market. The growth in home buying by single women began in the late 1970s and largely is attributable to the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974. The act prohibits creditors from discriminating on the basis of sex or marital status in any aspect of a credit transaction. Thus, single women have been assured equal access to the mortgages as well as other credit markets. Other legislation that also assures equal opportunity for women is a 1974 amendment to the Fair Housing Act, which prohibits sex discrimination in the sale or rental of housing and in Jjome finance. In short, women cannot be denied ^redit on the basis of marital status, sex, age, intentions of child-bearing, alimony, or child support. However, many women don't know their credit rights and could become the victims of discrimination. If you feel that you've been discriminated against, contact an attorney. Generally, today's female home buyers are more mature, More career minded, and have a stronger sense of individuality and financial saavy. Many single women home buyers are single parents; others are young professionals who want to establish roots and acquire something on their own. Condominiums are most popular among women. In fact, single women account for approximately one-third of all condominium sales. This isn't very surprising since most first-time buyers lean toward more affordable housing such as condos, older homes in need of repair, manufactured housing, and townhomes. Overall, single people as well as married persons are seeking stability, a good investment, and tax savings. A home provides all three.
