A bit about me...
Hi, I'm Karen Gonzales.
I was was born in Vancouver and am the middle child having an older and younger brother. My dad was from Denmark and my Mom's family from Norway. My Dad worked as a labourer in Vancouver but with strikes and rain, where everything shut down, my Mom and him found it very diffiicult to make ends meet and heard about a better economy in Alberta. So they sold our house, packed us all up and we took the CP Rail train (back in those days) to Calgary. We lived for a number of years in the NW part of Calgary but after meeting my husband and living in Calgary for a few years we decided to move to Chestermere in 1985 where we raised our three sons.
Real Estate is my passion...
Helping and being there for people is what I enjoy most.
It was a very good feeling to brighten the day of a few people!! A very special thank you to all those who have donated and continue to pay it forward. I also want to thank all of those who have put their trust in me with their Real Estate needs and who continue to refer me to their family and friends as this in turn allows me to give back to our community and to those in need!! A little kindness goes a long way xo❤ (Nov-01-2016)

For some, Real Estate can be a daunting experience. I take pride with the fact my clients know they can reach me at any time, I am always available for them. No question too small or too big.
I've had clients tell me that when I work for them, I give the impression they are my only clients. Customer service and satisfaction is my outmost concern.
I treat everyone the way I like to be treated. No high pressure sales, just friendly, knowledge service combined with my wealth of experience.
Before I joined the Real Estate industry I worked for 3 different Airlines and enjoyed it tremendously. There, I continuously met and worked with all cultures and nationalities providing them with excellent Customer Service.
This morning, Nov-22nd-2016 at 0800 I had the pleasure of working with other Realtors as we packed up 969 Brown Bag Lunches for Calgary school kids #BB4CK |
There were some happy people today at the Calgary #alphahouse. Earlier today we took down mitts, scarves and hats knit by the 78 year old Mother of one of my clients!! If anyone has yarn to donate please send me a PM as this sweet lady will continue to knit :) thank you and always be kind!! (Nov- 17-2016) |

I also feel blessed to have had the opportunity to have met so many people and being able to provide them with all of my Real Estate Knowledge and Experience
so they can achieve their goals to either Sell their existing Home or Purchasing a new Home.
On my time off I can be found collecting donations of clothing and food to help those in need, keeping fit by going to the gym, walking my dog or planning my next vacation.
