Rebecca’s Journey: From Dream to Keys with EmpowerHER: At 28th Street Agency, we see it every day women quietly dreaming of homeownership or property investment, wondering if it’s even possible. They’re balancing work, family, and life’s curveballs, often told they can’t afford it, that it’s too risky, or that they need to wait.
But we’re here to tell you: there’s more than one way to step into property and you don’t have to do it alone.
Rebecca, a single mum with a full heart and a vision for her family, was one of those women. And her journey is one we’ll never forget.
💫 One Woman. One Dream. One Big Step Forward.
When Rebecca applied for our EmpowerHER Program, she wasn’t sure if homeownership was possible. Like many single women, she’d been told “no” before.
But we believe “no” is just a redirection not a dead end.
The first step? We introduced her to a mortgage broker we trust, to explore if finance was even on the table. To her surprise and delight she was approved. And from there, the search began.
What happened next?
In just three weeks, Rebecca went from application to settlement. Today, she officially owns a beautiful property in Mawson Lakes a home with lake views, space for her family, and the peace of knowing it’s hers.
🏡 What Made Rebecca’s Story So Special?
It wasn’t just that she settled quickly. It was that we could give her access to something others couldn’t.
✔️ The home was off-market, never advertised publicly
✔️ Our agency was given first right of refusal
✔️ We secured it $30,000 below the asking price
✔️ And more importantly it was exactly what she needed
A peaceful location, three bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and stunning views the kind of home that builds security and confidence, not just equity.
🌱 Why We Created EmpowerHER
The EmpowerHER Program was born from something deeply personal a desire to help more women realise what’s possible with the right support.
Each year, we choose one woman to receive our entire buyer’s agent service completely free. We guide her from start to settlement, just like we do for paying clients. Because sometimes, all someone needs is a foot in the door and a team that believes in them.
It’s not about charity. It’s about levelling the playing field.
👩💼 It’s Not One Path There Are Many
Not every woman will buy a dream home in 3 weeks. But there are more ways to enter the market than most people realise:
🧭 Rentvesting – Buy where you can afford and rent where you want to live
📈 Buying in Super – Use your Self-Managed Super Fund (SMSF) to invest in property
🔑 Start with an investment – Secure a high-yield property now, and leverage equity later
🌟 Co-buying – Partner with family or friends to get started sooner
At 28th Street Agency, we help you explore every option not just the traditional ones. Because financial independence looks different for everyone, but the feeling of owning something that’s yours? That’s universal.
🔑 A Final Word for Every Woman Waiting
You don’t need to have a partner. You don’t need to be earning six figures. You don’t need to “wait until the time is right.”
You just need:
✨ A plan
✨ A guide
✨ And the courage to take the first step
