Press Release Summary: Women are as good as men when it comes to property investment
as they are good at multi-tasking and are as ambitious and switched on as their male
counterparts, according to a new survey.

Press Release Body: Bradford & Bingley has found that over three quarters of the
1,000 women surveyed who were involved in the property industry also held down day
jobs in addition to their property portfolios.

But while 42 per cent added that they have also taken on much of the renovation work
themselves, 48 per cent complain that tradespeople charge them more for goods and
services as they are women.

Fiona Fullerton, who owns several investment properties to the value of over
£2million, explained: \"Women are taking control by buying and renovating properties
and are being hugely successful at it.

\"Many women have a strong business sense and when combined with an innate ability to
multitask and a key eye for design, it can often create a winning formula.\"

A third of the women in property investment are under 30, or bought their first
investment property under 30.
