There is no better time than the present to discuss the diversity problem in the housing and real estate industry. Minorities account for over 48 percent of the U.S. renter population, and single women account for 42.5 percent of renters. However, only four percent of real estate companies are owned by women or minorities. To bridge this gap, Walker+%26amp%3B+Dunlop%2C+Inc. is increasing its efforts to amplify the DE&I conversation. Through its representation in CRE%3Ci%3EUnited%3C%2Fi%3E%26%238480%3B, the company facilitates connections for members that widen their networks and access to capital. This month, the company also released an informative and engaging CREUnited video and launched its new DE&I report highlighting the importance of inclusion.
