Laurie Loew

Introduction by Lion Mac Ragsdale

Come hear the inspirational story of how Laurie created a business that was designed to do good by doing good. There's more to life than just profits and beyond the bottom line is where Laurie lives.


Speaker's Bio:

Laurie Loew, GiveRealty, real estate philanthropy
Laurie Loew is the owner/founder of Give Realty, a philanthropic real estate brokerage that donates 25% of their commissions to the nonprofit of the buyer's or seller's choice in the buyer's or seller's name.

Hear her story, as written up in the New York Times in June: "Laurie Loew started Give Realty two and a half years ago. She was coming out of a divorce and got into real estate by accident. It was during the recession, there was a slump in home sales — you may have heard! — and she was struggling with how to set herself apart from all of the other struggling real estate agents in Austin, Tex.

As of today, Ms. Loew has given more than $112,000 to 40 different nonprofits. Three out of four clients come to her specifically because of her business model. The surprise bonus, she said, is the quality of clients she attracts. 'I’m surrounded by the best clients — the ones who want to make the world a better place,' she said."
