Sarasota Network
We are a network of successful REALTORS®, advancing women as business leaders in the industry and in the communities we serve.
Looking forward, my vision for our council is rooted in our shared commitment to professional growth, community service, and advocacy for women in the real estate industry. I believe that together, we can achieve new heights by focusing on enhancing member education, expanding our network and fostering inclusivity. Our theme for 2024 is Gratitude and Commitment, and using these 2 pillars I would like to ensure growth of our greatest assets: our members and our strategic business partners.
Women’s Council of Realtors has a robust history spanning 84 years and boasts a nationwide community of 12,000 real estate professionals who include many of the best and brightest in the business. Women’s Council is positioned as a leader for the real estate industry as a whole due to the business leadership skills the Council provides for organized real estate and for political action committees.
Our network has been awarded 2023-2024 Certified Network status. This honor is bestowed only on the most active local and state networks that achieve five key benchmarks of network excellence and exceed basic charter requirements per their national affiliation while providing outstanding member service.
We have chosen SELAH Freedom as our charity for 2024. Selah Freedom’s vision is to abolish sex trafficking and exploitation throughout the world and eradicate the need for survivor services through preventative efforts.
On behalf of our membership and Board of Directors, I am honored to invite you to partner with Sarasota Women’s Council of REALTORS® so we can continue to provide the tools and training needed to advance the next generation of women leaders in business and the real estate industry.
We thank you for your continued support and look forward to an amazing year of learning, personal and professional development, and cultivating relationships that will last a lifetime.
I am honored to serve,
DEBBIE MCHARDY, REALTOR®
2024 President, Sarasota Women’s Council of REALTORS®
