The 2024 State of Hispanic Wealth Report highlights key achievements and goals in Hispanic wealth-building. The Hispanic Wealth Project, established in response to significant losses in Hispanic household wealth after the Great Recession, set a goal to triple Hispanic household wealth by 2024, which was achieved two years early. The report focuses on four primary areas: homeownership, business ownership, financial asset growth, and asset protection. Hispanic homeownership rates have nearly reached 50%, and Hispanic-owned businesses are growing faster than others. However, financial challenges remain, especially in accessing capital and investment opportunities. Hispanic households still face a significant wealth gap with non-Hispanic White households, though this gap has closed proportionally by nearly half over the past decade. The report calls for increased representation of Hispanic professionals in real estate and finance and expanded access to financial education and tools, particularly for estate planning, to ensure wealth preservation and intergenerational transfer.
El Informe del Estado de la Riqueza Hispana 2024 destaca logros y metas clave en la construcción de riqueza para la comunidad hispana. El Proyecto de Riqueza Hispana, creado después de la Gran Recesión para enfrentar pérdidas significativas de patrimonio en los hogares hispanos, estableció como meta triplicar esta riqueza para 2024, alcanzando dicho objetivo dos años antes. El informe se centra en cuatro áreas: propiedad de vivienda, propiedad de negocios, crecimiento de activos financieros y protección de activos. Las tasas de propiedad de vivienda hispana están cerca del 50%, y los negocios hispanos están creciendo más rápido que otros. Sin embargo, persisten desafíos financieros, especialmente en acceso a capital y oportunidades de inversión. Los hogares hispanos aún enfrentan una brecha significativa de riqueza con los hogares blancos no hispanos, aunque esta brecha se ha reducido proporcionalmente casi a la mitad en la última década. El informe recomienda aumentar la representación de profesionales hispanos en bienes raíces y finanzas, y ampliar el acceso a la educación financiera, en especial en planificación patrimonial, para asegurar la preservación de la riqueza y su transferencia intergeneracional.
Jenny Torres, NAHREP South Florida’s Government Affairs Director supported Vet Info at Vamos a Pescar 2024.
“Vamos a Pescar” is a wonderful event that supports learning to fish. Florida Fish & Wildlife provides the fishing rods, while Bass Pro Shops donates the bait. Volunteers from Vet Info and Miami Eco Adventures teach families how to fish. There was a total of 607 attendees.
Discipline #10 BE ACTIVE IN THE LIVES OF YOUR FAMILY AND CHILDREN because familia is central to who we are.
While Jenny’s family was not present, she certainly supported the idea of family. Jenny is pictured with Vet Info Founder, Mark Pinilla. Parents visit the event because they do not know how to fish. It was a great opportunity to share and be part of the community.
The data shows that the Hispanic homeownership gap is shrinking but still significant. From 2000 to 2022, the homeownership rate for Hispanics has increased, indicating progress but also highlighting that there’s still a disparity compared to the general population. This trend is crucial as homeownership significantly contributes to wealth building, as noted in the 2023 State of Hispanic Wealth Report. Owning a home boosts net worth and provides financial stability.
Realtors play a vital role in this journey, serving as the front line for renters aspiring to become homeowners. They provide essential guidance and resources to help navigate the homebuying process. For those looking to close this gap and build wealth, consider the benefits of homeownership and seek guidance from experts.

Los datos muestran que la brecha de propiedad de vivienda hispana está disminuyendo, pero sigue siendo significativa. Desde 2000 hasta 2022, la tasa de propiedad de vivienda para los hispanos ha aumentado, lo que indica progreso pero también destaca que aún existe una disparidad en comparación con la población general. Esta tendencia es crucial ya que la propiedad de vivienda contribuye significativamente a la creación de riqueza, como se menciona en el Informe de Riqueza Hispana de 2023. Poseer una vivienda aumenta el patrimonio neto y proporciona estabilidad financiera.
Los agentes inmobiliarios juegan un papel vital en este viaje, sirviendo como la primera línea para los inquilinos que aspiran a convertirse en propietarios de viviendas. Proporcionan orientación y recursos esenciales para ayudar a navegar el proceso de compra de una vivienda. Para aquellos que buscan cerrar esta brecha y construir riqueza, consideren los beneficios de ser propietarios de vivienda y busquen la orientación de expertos.
