Barb is a true professional with a strong knowledge base. Barb was there to answer all our questions and keep the transaction moving forward. I would highly recommend Barb and Coldwell Banker Bain.

Having been friends with Barb for 15 years, we were not surprised that our experience using her to sell our home and buy a new home (both on Bainbridge Island) was outstanding. She educated us on the home buying and selling process in a very understandable way and guided us to what has turned out to be our dream home. Meanwhile, when two different buyers backed out of their contracts, she helped us stay positive until just the right buyer ended up in our home. Barb is ethical, professional and greatly respected by her peers. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again (but hopefully not for 20 more years)!

Barb calmly guided us through the sometimes stressful and complex sale of our Bainbridge property. She is a very experienced real estate professional. Barb was always positive and upbeat while keeping our transaction moving forward. We’re very grateful for her help.

Barb prepared us for the marketing, showing and sale of our home with the utmost professionalism. She has her finger on the pulse of the market and keeps you informed at all times. She worked tirelessly to find us a rental in a very tight market and we felt supported and cared for from start to finish.
I would highly recommend Barb to others and would not hesitate to use her talents again should the need arise.

Debbie W.

Barb has extensive knowledge of the Bainbridge Island market, as well as surrounding areas. She is very professional, compassionate, able to steer you through the buying process, and negotiate the deal. She respects her clients and understands the sometimes difficult decisions in the process. We were also impressed with the unquestionable respect other realtors have for her. We trusted her judgment and highly recommend her.

Joini M.

Barb's experience and skills were invaluable to me, as I was living on the other side of the country throughout this transaction. While always mindful of the three-hour time difference between us, Barb kept me informed every step of the way, had helpful suggestions on how to address the inevitable issues that came up, and made me feel welcome in my new hometown.

If you are buying or selling real estate on Bainbridge Island, you can't do better than having Barb McKenzie represent your interests. Barb has been a powerhouse broker/realtor on the island for decades. Her success comes from a strong work ethic, an eye for detail in sale preparation, local market knowledge supported with Coldwell Banker's broader market research database, and undeniable savvy in negotiating the transaction to a successful conclusion. We recently completed our fifth transaction with Barb and the Coldwell Banker organization. There was never a hesitation when we decided who we would award our listing to, and their are lots realtors on Bainbridge Island; We highly recommend you place Barb high on your short list of realtors to consider. We've are completely satisfied with the results of our real estate transactions over the years.

It was wonderful working with Barb - she genuinely cared about my family and making sure we had the best possible outcome. She was always available for questions and so great with communicating during negotiations. Her recommendations for listing were spot on and she clearly understands the Bainbridge Island market. Anyone would be lucky to have Barb as their agent!

F. Wollaeger

We just closed on selling our home and buying another. Barb McKenzie represented us on both deals and we couldn't be happier with the result! We quickly learned that she is extremely knowledgeable, not only about the market, but about all the details involved in navigating a Real Estate transaction. Barb worked very hard, was very communicative, and had great ideas for us in the presentation of our house. She listened to our concerns carefully, and steered us in the right direction at every point in the process. We truly felt that she responded to who we are. She was looking out for us in every way, both in the sale of our home, and the purchase of another. Barb came to us highly recommended from multiple sources, and yet still managed to exceed our expectations. We highly recommend her.

Cate H.

Barb is an exceptional real estate professional. Not only is she extremely knowledgeable, she’s also responsive and caring. From the initial marketing strategy for our home, to the day of closing, she offered expert assistance, and both my husband and I recommend her without reservation. I want to emphasize that Barb not only knows the Bainbridge Island market, she knows how to market. Our home sold very quickly, and the brochure and video she prepared were top notch in every respect. This recommendation wouldn’t be complete if I didn’t say that she is also a genuine pleasure to work with. Barb is the kind of person that almost anyone would be happy to have as a friend.

John and Jan C.

Barb gained our confidence without hesitation. Her kind and thoughtful demeanor coupled with sincere professionalism is such a wonderful combination. We feel lucky and fortunate to have Barb representing us during such an important time of our life. Thank you!
