PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
Elly McKenzie
https://www.ellymckenzie.work
I grew up mainly in Madison, WI and am a strong supporter of community building. I went to undergrad at a Quaker College in Indiana and learned even greater respect for varied viewpoints and team work. I returned to Madison for my graduate education. Upon finishing my degree, I moved to Seattle at the beginning of 2010, and moved to the Newcastle area in 2013. I love the Pacific Northwest and am proud to call it my home. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Japanese Studies from Earlham College and a Masters of Science in Occupational Therapy from the University of Wisconsin, Madison.
When I’m not selling Real Estate, you can find me hiking, cycling, playing Ultimate Frisbee, exploring town and enjoying good food with friends, snuggling with my dog and a book on the couch, or playing board games or going for walks with my husband and kids.
I began my Real Estate practice through a mentorship with a very seasoned Broker at Windermere Bellevue Commons. Since then, I moved into my own solo business with great real-world experience over the years and have enjoyed being able to effectively help clients purchase & sell their homes. As a therapist, I learned to listen well and have an eye to detail which I use to assist clients in not only finding good homes but finding the homes that they really want and love.
I am dedicated to continually enhancing and honing my skills, as well as seeking out ways to network with other professionals in the business. I believe that keeping current really matters to how well I can serve clients.
I have been working with Real Estate coaches since early 2016 to improve client experience, refine my skills, & provide you with tailored services that meet your needs and exceed your expectations. By empowering you with information and setting up a good process for you, I enable you to make informed decisions which cuts down on stress. It is my belief that home buying and selling can actually be fun!
