 Lynda Binder

Co-Founder 

Lynda Binder was born and raised in Calgary, Alberta into a family of eight girls. Yes it was hectic at times but the family worked well together to make sure they had awesome family memories. Lynda is happily married, has two children and four grandchildren. She understands the importance of family time.

Lynda is a graduate of accounting and business, and used that education to run a very successful business. Lynda worked in Real Estate for eighteen years and in that time she dedicated herself to her clients. As a result most of her business became repeat and referral. It was clear to Lynda’s clients that she always kept their best interest at heart, always searching for buyers to get the right property to fit their needs, or made sure sellers homes showed better than the competition.

Family, clients and friends are very important to Lynda but that didn`t stop her from putting countless hours into many Calgary charities. Lynda worked in various capacities on the Board of Douglasdale Estates Community Association more than 12 years. Lynda also worked on the Aunts and Uncles at Large Board and helped with many fundraisers including Big Brothers, Big Sisters, Children’s Miracle Network, Shamrock Children’s Christmas Fund, and SAIT.   When Lynda is not helping someone she likes to golf, curl, dance, cook for her family and friends, and go for long walks.

As one of the founders of “The Great Attenders” Lynda can continue her mission in helping people with their needs.  People need help in relocating, de-cluttering, house sitting, someone to check your home while you are on vacation, or just simply run errands, this is why “The Great Attenders” came to be. Let “The Great Attenders” take the juggling out of your life.
