We have bought and sold houses over a dozen times in various regions of the U.S. Moving to Bend as “newbies” (2500+ miles away) we were in need of an agent who would engage with us over a condensed schedule such that we could get a comprehensive overview and acclimation to our search. Kenzie was one of referrals we were given. In plain words she just knocked it out of the park! In the three main categories of key assets - 1. Communication (listening as well as proving input), 2. Thoroughness (preparation/ organization/ promptness) 3. Honesty (+ reliability) She aced everything you would want in assistance with a major purchase, especially when we are coming from approx. 2500 miles away. AAA-Plus in every way.

Kenzie was absolutely amazing throughout our home-buying journey! We spent months searching for a home in Bend, and she was always honest, patient, and truly invested in understanding what we were looking for. She helped us distinguish our non-negotiables from our nice-to-haves and never made us feel pressured. We are beyond grateful for her guidance and dedication. We couldn’t be happier with the home we ended up buying—it truly feels like our dream house in our dream neighborhood. We highly recommend Kenzie to anyone looking for a thoughtful, trustworthy, and exceptional real estate agent!

After signing with her, she arranged crews to make the house look perfect for pictures and video. The video was so impressive it almost made me not want to sell! She was great helping us negotiate the sale price, and finding workers to make corrections after the buyers inspection. The whole process was smooth and easy. Far superior to other realtors I’ve been involved with in the past.

Kenzie was amazing. She handled everything so efficiently. When we signed with her, she had crews out to make everything look perfect for the pictures and video. After the buyers inspection, she helped find people to make requested repairs. She is friendly and easy to work with.

Kenzie is absolutely amazing! She helped me sell my house in Central Oregon last summer. It was my first home selling process and she was very knowledgeable, patient, understanding, and supportive. It was an unconventional, homestead-style home and with her vision and expertise, we had multiple offers in the first couple of weeks on the market. I couldn’t believe it! I would highly recommend Kenzie to help buy or sell a home. Truly 5 star experience!!! Thank you, Kenzie!

Kenzie helped us sell our SW Bend home in record time, and the entire experience was outstanding. Her attention to detail and unique approach to the selling process truly set her apart from other realtors we have worked with. What we appreciated most was how hands-on she was. Kenzie expertly staged our home to look its absolute best, took over many of the tasks that typically fall on the homeowner, and provided incredible assistance with everything else. She made the entire process completely low-stress. Her recommendations throughout the sale were always spot-on, even when we weren't entirely sure ourselves. She utilized every tool available to ensure our home stood out, attracting a massive amount of attention that resulted in immediate offers and a final sale over asking price. If you want a seamless, successful home sale, we highly recommend Kenzie!

I knew from the moment I met Kenzie that she was a shaker-mover and that I would use her when I was ready to sell my house. My instincts were absolutely spot on. She is a true professional with a deep understanding of the real estate market in Bend. Kenzie is, by far, more resourceful than any other agent with whom I interacted during the discernment process in choosing her to represent me in the sale of my house. She came to the table with an exact plan of how she would market my house and executed that plan flawlessly with aplomb. She made the preparation painless by meticulously communicating a busy schedule leading up to the house going live on MLS, held open houses, was present at every showing, and generally supportive throughout the process. She was completely available and quick to respond to messages. Kenzie is the epitome of a hard worker and excellent person.

As first-time home buyers in Bend, we couldn’t have asked for a better realtor than Kenzie. She was incredibly patient, responsive, and made the whole process streamlined.

I would not hesitate to recommend her as your agent!

Kenzie is very knowledgeable regarding the Bend neighborhoods, pros and cons of each. She is competent in home repairs and remodeling so quick with resolutions to questions on condition of homes we visited. All recommendations on inspections regarding multiple home systems were excellent, we will be those companies in the future. She is quick with any correspondence to address our questions and concerns . Most importantly she is a very pleasant person and had our best interest in mind.
