As in many other aspects of life, when it comes to selling real estate, the sexes have their individual strengths. Female agents have the upper hand in first showings, too, given that a wife typically does the legwork, calling the husband in if she likes the house. (...) Elli Davis is Royal LePage's No. 1 agent in Toronto and is consistently among the company's top four in Canada. Ms. Davis's first sale was a $140,000 one-bedroom luxury condo at Granite Place, a condo at Yonge Street and St. Clair Avenue. She admits the excitement of that first sale is still just as strong with every subsequent sale she has made over the past 25 years.
