With expertise in marketing and branding, paired with McKenzie's impeccable work ethic, keen intuition, and sharp negotiating style, she regularly delivers her sellers the full asking price on their properties and negotiates impressive deals for her buyers. Forbes named McKenzie the top New York Power Broker, the youngest broker ever to receive this recognition.
