Leading Ladies of Real Estate heading back to Townsville

A women in real estate event is coming to Townsville this month with an aim to connect women in the industry in an informal and fun environment.

The Leading Ladies of Real Estate’s Canapes and Conversations will be held in Townsville for the second time ever on May 29.

Sally Patch, Queensland Chair of Leading Ladies of Real Estate, said the aim of Leading Ladies in Real Estate was to celebrate and elevate women in the property industry.

“We are so excited to bring Leading Ladies back to Townsville — this is only our second event outside of a capital city,” she said.

“Our events are all about real connection, real stories, and real inspiration.”

Ms Patch said the organisation was an industry-wide initiative with a mission to inspire and empower women in real estate to realise their full potential — personally and professionally.

The community is inclusive with support from across the industry and operates under the understanding that ‘you can’t be what you can’t see’.
