I wrote about a report recently that showed that single women were more likely than single men to purchase homes.

In Collier County, the Irvine, California-based company found that the average estimated home value of homes owned by single women is $305,852, or 13 percent less than the $349,955 average value of homes owned by single men.

Blomquist attributes the gap to the fact that nationally, women are paid 19 percent less, on average, than men, quoting Bureau of Labor Statistics.
