About Commercial Real Estate Women Network San Francisco

Since 1984, CREW SF has been dedicated to changing business’ gender trends and closing the parity gap by giving women in real estate the support, resources and opportunities they need to connect, influence, and lead. As a chapter of CREW Network, CREW SF also provides our members with direct access to 12,000 commercial real estate professionals in 75+ major global markets.

CREW SF’s Mission is “To Develop and Advance Women as Leaders in the Commercial Real Estate Industry.” No matter where we are in our career path, we all strive to continue developing our skills, expertise and network. Advancing women as leaders doesn’t only mean advancing yourself, but also promoting and elevating others. Involvement in CREW offers opportunities to learn and benefit from each other, across different segments of the industry and multiple generations.

We have the opportunity and the obligation given the state of the world to be a part of a larger purpose. Join us as we create and reflect a community where ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) integrates with our industry to make a difference in all aspects of our work and life. Our programming takes into account: principles for responsible investment; sustainability and climate change in the built community; and social concerns, including Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Our chapter’s governance structure is designed to enable leaders to build skills that will increase their chance of serving on the boards of other non-profit and corporate organizations.

When CREW SF was founded in 1984, women in commercial real estate were ready for a revolution. Educated, motivated, and ready to “do the deal,” a number of professionals realized what was missing in their quest for success: contacts, referrals, and camaraderie—all essential ingredients in the business dealings of their male counterparts. And they saw opportunities beyond a “good ol’ boys” redux; CREW SF’s founders looked to the diverse professions that touched commercial real estate and invited them to be part of the evolution of how business is done.
