A Note from your Operating Principal & Team Leader The heart of a company are the people and the community they make.

Kenneth is truly honored to help, coach, and consult at KW. He is privileged to work with the best in the business each and every day and be a part of their success story. - Your Operating Principal Kenneth Zarella

Becoming a Team Leader has been the most rewarding role of my life. I am filled with purpose and gratitude to be part of the journey when Mega Agents crush their goals, agents becoming mega agents, and new agents becoming Top Producers. I truly believe KWHC is the best brokerage in Houston and it is because of all you amazing agents. Thank you for being you and for everything you do for the market center. - Your Team Leader Monica Montez 2 EGAP

Keller Williams Houston Central

We are now official official. It is time for our ongoing joke to come to an end. Keller Williams Houston Central became an official company at the end of February 2020. We are KWHC market center #1146. A few weeks later the world shut down due to COVID. With so much uncertainty we stuck together and built our amazing company. We found our home at 711 Milby a little over a year later, and it was time to celebrate. It was a beautiful night and we are so excited for the many more "official" celebrations to come.

And then there was 100!

95, 96, 97, 98, 99, and there it was...we hit 100! It took us a little over a year, but In July we celebrated our huge milestone. We also celebrated that we are one of the top ten fastest growing agencies in Houston. As the new Keller Williams in town, we strive to help agents grow their business and leave behind legacies.

KWHC RISING STAR Elio Alanis How long have you been in Real Estate?

A year and a half.

Why Real Estate?

As a kid I grew up in the restaurant industry selling tacos after school. I had a natural ability to make people smile and now I practice that daily with helping people find their perfect home.

What do you do for fun?

I fly planes and I'm currently working on my private pilot license. I also enjoy going to the gym and staying in a healthy mindset.

What would you recommend to someone coming into real estate?

Learn how to be disciplined and purposeful with your time.

What was your biggest obstacle to date?

At first it was time management, but I figured out how to make a schedule that works for my business.

What are you excited for in 2022?

I've been very blessed to be on track to become a mega agent.

I am adding to my team and I look forward to the growth of my company and I look forward to helping more families.

What do you love most about Keller Williams Houston Central?

The culture of the office and the support from each and every agent.

Keller Williams Ranks No. 6 on Forbes’ America’s Best Employers for Women Lalaina Rabary

Forbes has once again placed Keller Williams Realty on its annual list of America’s Best Employers for Women. This is the third year in a row in which Keller Williams has appeared on the list, ranking sixth among 300 multinational companies such as Coca-Cola, REI, and Ulta Beauty. The accolade comes on top of a growing list of notable awards for Keller Williams in 2020, including America’s Best Employers for Diversity, Most Innovative Franchises and 2020 Newsmakers.

Breaking the Mold At Keller Williams, 50% of the company’s executive team is comprised of women, which is a stark contrast to recent research by Catalyst which found women only made up 26.5% of executive positions in U.S. public companies.

Supporting Women Worldwide Including the United States, Keller Williams provides entrepreneurship and leadership opportunities to women in 47 regions across the world.
