Women have been legally allowed to get a mortgage for just about 50 years — and the gap that was created is still closing.This week on Not All Business, we sat down with Lane McLeod, founder of West Lane Lending, a mortgage brokerage built around one very clear mission: helping women build wealth through homeownership. Lane has watched the data play out in real time — single men buying homes in their 30s without a second thought, while the majority of single women who come through her door are in their 50s, often after a divorce, sitting on decades of missed equity.Lane's own path wasn't a straight line. She left a dream job in the fashion industry, lived through a hard season during COVID, and started a mortgage company from scratch in an industry she barely knew. Five years later she's hosting invite-only Pilates classes for women where the real agenda is financial education — and the results are speaking for themselves.Key Takeaways:The equity gap no one's talking about: why women's homeownership timelines are running decades behind men'sWhy Lane doesn't lead with credit score — and what she actually wants you to do firstThe mortgage math most women were never taught (including why your mortgage can cost less than rent)What "hot girls build equity" actually means — and why it's about more than moneyHow Lane went from the fashion industry to building a mortgage brokerage on Pilates and purposeThe one mindset shift that changes how you think about property, debt, and your future selfPlease consider sharing this episode & subscribing to the show for more unfiltered conversations about leadership, growth, and the messy human side of business.Follow Lane:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/westlanelending/ West Lane Lending: https://westlanelending.com/Property Pilates Club invite list: https://www.propertypilatesclub.com/ [DM Lane on Instagram]Email: lane@westlanelending.comLinks & Mentions:Equal Credit Opportunity Act (1974): https://www.justice.gov/crt/equal-credit-opportunity-act-3 Huron skincare (Clay's new routine): https://usehuron.com/ Submit Your Sticky Situations & Workplace Dilemmas:Got a sticky situation for Not All Business?
