As a former realtor and buyer of several properties over the years I can especially appreciate the professionalism of Mackenzie Grate. Her market knowledge was critical to me because I was buying outside of my home state and searching an area I knew little about. As a result I had to rely on Mackenzie's knowledge of Hudson Valley towns and the neighborhoods of those towns. She shared history and trends, neighborhood amenities and characteristics. She understood my criteria and was sensitive to my needs. Plus, she was so much fun and energetic! I never felt pressured to make a decision but felt confident when I did make a decision because of her thoroughness. I highly recommend Mackenzie Grate as a realtor in New York!

Mackenzie was the perfect agent for us! As first time home buyers she was very patient. We had a lot of questions throughout the process and she was always happy to explain share her personal experiences with us. She spent a lot of time showing us around a dozen properties before we found our house, and never pressured us into any uncomfortable situations. My partner and I would recommend Mackenzie to anyone, especially those looking to get into real-estate investing!

We greatly appreciated Mackenzie’s attention to detail and scheduling when we were searching, and her prompt and clear communication made the closing process much less stressful. The best part of working with Mackenzie were her energy and enthusiasm. We highly highly recommend Mackenzie and the team at Machree Group Real Estate.

MacKenzie was recommended to me as the perfect agent for a first-time homebuyer, and an expert in investment properties. She excelled in helping me navigate through both of these challenges. During the search process, MacKenzie frequently sent me properties that fit my criteria. She arranged showing appointments that fit my tight schedule. She was also very knowledgeable about the properties that were on the market and steered me away from ones that she knew would not work due to various circumstances. She approached each property with a keen eye for renovation costs and the desires of future renters. As a first-time home buyer, I knew very little about the loan and contract process. I could reach out to MacKenzie with any question - big or small - and she responded with quickly with depth and detail. MacKenzie continued to provide me with support even after my purchase was finalized. She brainstormed renovation strategies and costs, provided information about permits and building codes and even stopped by to check in on progress. I was able to tap MacKenzie for advice when listing and renting out my property. I would recommend MacKenzie to anyone in a heartbeat!

As a first time home buyer I don't think I could have asked for more from a buyer's agent. Mackenzie is knowledgeable, beyond helpful, and extremely responsive. She kept me up to date throughout the entire process, answered texts with rapid speed, and when she didn't have an answer for me she sought it out from someone who did. Mackenzie kept on top of all the other parties involved (seller's agent, attorneys, bank, etc.) to make sure things were moving as smoothly as possible. She offered me sound advice for making a strong offer but was never too pushy about the decision. Beyond being knowledgeable and helpful she really cared about me as a client and wanted to make sure I found the house I was looking for.

Mackenzie is one of the most hardworking and dedicated people I have come across. She went above and beyond when it came to helping me find a house that was within budget and fit so many of the boxes I had. She helped keep me grounded in realism about what was possible and what wasn't and how we could achieve the end goal. She traveled far and wide and often without me to see houses when I had to work and worked tirelessly to find the "one". As a first time home buyer I was nervous about being able to invest in a home and her encouragement, knowledge and positivity, even post purchase, has been such a help. I highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home upstate.

Mackenzie Grate is an energetic and extremely helpful person. In addition to selling us a wonderful property, she interviewed possible tenants and chose for our consideration only people who she deemed able to safely afford the rent and who were easy to get along with. She is always there when you need her and always helpful in any way possible. We are extremely grateful to her for helping us so very much and would urge anyone to choose her services.

She held our hands through a complicated first home purchase. Her positive attitude and willingness to share her resources to help put our minds at rest on any concerns outside our comfort zone allowed us to purchase a home we really love.

Mackenzie is the BEST, hands-down! She is super knowledgeable, patient, kind, communicative, and goes above and beyond for her clients. As a first-time home buyer, I would have been absolutely lost without Mackenzie’s experience-informed guidance and help. I plan to work with Mackenzie whenever possible, and I’d recommend her to anyone - 100/10!!

MacKenzie was amazing in every way. She helped me sell one house and buy another in a really crazy Market. She held my hand when I was sure that everything was going to fall apart. It was fine, reassuring, attentive to detail. She's intelligent and resourceful, and at the same time has an incredibly soothing personality, something that came in really handy because this was an very stressful transition for me. She followed up quickly on every single thing I needed. She even helped me move at the last minute LOL.

Mackenzie knocked it out of the park on all levels. She is an amazing real estate agent, with prodigious knowledge, an ironclad work ethic, and fantastic closing skills. She got me more money more quickly than I thought possible. She is an absolute pleasure to work with!

Mackenzie is very knowledgeable about the Hudson Valley real estate market. She’s a fantastic listener, consistent advocate, and hard working— always going above and beyond to find the best deal for her clients. I recommend Mackenzie 10/10 for anyone looking to work with a top notch realtor. Mackenzie will be the only realtor I work with, so that should give anyone looking for a realtor an idea of how great she really is!
