A branded agency wins the instruction before the valuation. An unbranded one wins it on the sixth call back.
Women In Residential Property is a professional network built for and by women across the UK residential property sector. Estate agents, conveyancers, surveyors, lenders, developers and investors - WIRP connects professionals across the whole value chain, providing events, education, mentoring and the community that makes careers in property more sustainable and more rewarding.
Women make up a significant proportion of the residential property workforce but are underrepresented in senior roles and networking spaces where professional relationships are built and careers are advanced.
Professional advancement in residential property depends heavily on relationships, referrals and visibility among senior practitioners. Networking spaces that do not represent the full workforce leave significant talent underutilised.
Women in property - particularly at senior levels or in specialist roles - often report feeling isolated in environments where their experience is not fully shared by colleagues. WIRP provides the peer community that changes that.
Generic industry events often fail to address the specific professional and personal challenges that women in property face. WIRP events are designed around the actual professional lives of their members.
Senior mentors who understand the specific dynamics of building a career in residential property are hard to find through informal networks. WIRP creates structured access to those relationships.
WIRP membership spans the entire residential property value chain - from estate agents and lettings professionals to conveyancers, surveyors, lenders and developers - creating a network that works across organisational and disciplinary boundaries.
WIRP runs a programme of events across the UK - networking lunches, educational sessions, roundtables and larger conference formats. Events are designed to create professional connections and substantive learning in equal measure.
Webinars, workshops and educational content covering career development, industry knowledge, leadership skills and the specific professional topics that matter to women working in residential property.
WIRP facilitates mentoring relationships between established and emerging professionals across the sector. Both mentors and mentees benefit - experienced practitioners share knowledge, emerging talent brings fresh perspective.
Because WIRP membership spans the whole property value chain, members build relationships with professionals in adjacent specialisms - the conveyancer who knows your buyers, the surveyor who understands your market, the lender who works with your clients.
WIRP creates platforms for members to build professional visibility - speaking opportunities at events, contribution to thought leadership content and recognition of professional achievement across the network.
WIRP contributes to industry conversations about gender equity, representation and inclusion - working with organisations across the sector to change the conditions that create underrepresentation, not just support individuals within them.
WIRP membership is open to women working in any part of the residential property sector. Joining is straightforward and the network is active from your first event.

Women In Residential Property was founded to address a specific gap in the UK property sector: a professional network built explicitly for women across the whole residential property value chain. Unlike women-in-business networks or broader property organisations, WIRP focuses on the specific professional environment of residential property - the relationships, career paths and industry dynamics that shape working life for women in estate agency, conveyancing, surveying, lending, development and investment. Their mission - to educate, empower and support all those in residential property to achieve gender equity - is pursued through events, mentoring, education and advocacy.
