Description

The Open House Podcast: Where Women Talk Real Estate is your space for welcoming, inclusive conversations about real estate, where women come together to learn, share, and support one another.

Hosted by Kristina Modares, founder of Open House Education, this podcast dives into the softer side of real estate—buying homes with friends, creative investing strategies, and making money in ways that feel good. Through interviews with inspiring women from our nationwide community, you’ll hear stories about buying houses with friends, exciting creative projects, and unique journeys to homeownership. 

Join us as we foster a space where women can grow, connect, and explore creative real estate together.

Ready to join our community yourself? Head to OpenHouseEducation.com 
We are welcoming new members from November 12-22, 2024.
