Women real estate investors face a lot of challenges when it comes to working in the industry. The first challenge is that there are not enough women in the industry, which leads to a lack of female role models. Next, the second challenge is that women are often discouraged from investing in real estate because they think it's not for them and they should focus on other industries. Finally, the third challenge is that women don't know how to invest or what to invest in, which leads them to make mistakes and lose money.

As a way to help women overcome those challenges as well as make the process of real estate investing attainable, successful real estate investor-turned-author, Tamar Hermes wrote the insightful and informative book, The Millionairess Mentality: The Professional Woman’s Guide to Building Wealth Through Real Estate.

Broken down into eleven easy-to-read and interesting chapters, Hermes shares how her humble childhood shaped her adult belief system ultimately paving her way to success. Hermes also shares how she built an eight-figure real estate investing business from nothing and how any woman that is willing to learn can become a successful investor—regardless of their upbringing, education, skill set, and professional expertise.
