Joanna White

Real Estate Broker, Bailey & Company Real Estate

HOME: North Little Rock

FAVORITE RESTAURANT: Raduno Brick Oven & Barroom

There are working moms, and then there is Joanna White. After deciding in college that architecture wasn’t for her, White turned her passion for construction and design into a fulfilling career showing Arkansas natives and new residents alike what the Natural State has to offer. She attended real estate school in her second trimester and received her license just 20 days before her son was born – not to mention going on to sell seven homes and win her firm’s Rookie of the Year award soon after. She has an eye for style and has been known to research home improvement projects for fun, whether it’s for her own home or one she’s selling. Outside of work, White spends time with her family, improving her tennis game and attending country music concerts.

What attracted you to your career?

Real estate seemed like a natural fit considering my passions and love for Arkansas. My father has been a residential contractor most of my life. I grew up visiting job sites, hearing conversations about home improvement ideas and studying his blueprints at the dining room table.

What is the best part of your day?

I love school pickup. My son has the biggest smile on his face when he sees me; he waves constantly until it’s time for him to get in the vehicle and tell me about his day.

What lessons have you learned from working in your field?

You have to put yourself out there. I’m not the biggest fan of sharing things so publicly, but social platforms are a great way to connect with people. I’ve had to put my hesitations aside to share my real estate journey and stay relevant.

What do you love most about what you do?

Making connections and building relationships. When a first-time home buyer becomes a friend and sends me pictures of their first home decorated for Christmas, it’s so rewarding.

If you were handed a million dollars, what would you do with it

Pay off my family’s mortgages and invest the rest in rental properties and other real estate developments.
