EPISODE SUMMARY 

In this episode of Black Businesses Matter Podcast, we sit down with Sarah L. Ware, Principal and Designated Managing Broker of Ware Realty Group. With over twenty years of experience in real estate, Sarah has made her mark across various sectors of the industry. Her path from corporate America to leading her own firm reflects a career built on resilience, leadership, and community impact.

Sarah opens up about her upbringing, highlighting her academic achievements and the powerful influence of her loving parents. Even as a child, she was known for her ability to “handle business,” a trait that has clearly followed her into adulthood.

She also reflects on her time as the 139th President of the Chicago Association of REALTORS® (2022–2023), where she identified a significant funding gap for new realtors. In response, she created her own grant to help emerging professionals establish and grow their real estate careers.
