Kenzie is fantastic!!! When we bought our home on Camano Island she went above and beyond at every turn. For every question we had, she provided or got us an immediate answer. She got to know us and exactly what we were looking for in our next home. We got all we wanted and more. If I were buying or selling a home, I would refuse to work with anyone other than Kenzie. She is passionate about the happiness of her customers and ensures everything goes as it should. Kenzie is the best in the business and you should contact her for your real estate needs!!!

We would like to recommend Kenzie Kipper as your next Real Estate Agent for all the expected reasons...professional and yet personal, hard working, knowledgeable, and efficient. What goes beyond those amazing qualities is that she respected our love for the home we were selling and marketed it to the qualities that we love. To us, it wasn't just a building to live in but a home that we loved and were parting with. She understood and honored that. Thank you, Kenzie. It was wonderful to work with you.

Kenzie focuses on the best value for your home. She is relentless when it comes to finding a qualified buyer. A friend of mine recommended her to me about 12 years ago. She has been my realtor ever since.

I had a great experience with Kenzie and highly recommend her services. She did a great job of marketing my property and ultimately got full asking price. The transaction went smoothly and both the buyers and the seller went away happy.

Kenzie is amazing! She takes pride in what she does and it shows. Kenzie helped my husband and I find our dream home. She is on top of every stage of the purchasing process. We received weekly emails of listing that matched what we were looking for. She was available every time we needed her. From showings, to questions about the property. If you are looking for a Real Estate Professional that is just that, professional. Kenzie is the person you want! Thank you so much for helping our family find our home!

Kenzie is absolutely great, very flexible and willing to help in any way possible. She found homes that were within my budget and met the needs and wants of what I was looking for. She made every effort too accommodate exactly what I was looking for. Knowledgeable and friendly, she fostered an extremely low stress process and was willing to put in extra time to help in any way she could.

We recently purchased our first home. My husband and I had 2 completely different views on what would work for our family on our budget. She showed us homes that would be a good compromise for the both of us. She made the whole process enjoyable.

Kenzie is awesome. The negotiations with the seller were frustrating and they didn't want to budge. We gave up hope on the sale and Kenzie surprised us by working out a deal with the seller that worked for both of us. I recommend Kenzie Kipper without hesitation.

Kenzie was a pleasure to work with and made the whole experience truly enjoyable! We were first time home buyers on a limited budget. Kenzie very quickly figured out what we were looking for and helped us find it in our limited time frame. During the negotiation process it was such a relief to know that I had Kenzie on my side, she got us what we wanted within our budget. She is extremely knowledgeable and answered most of our questions before we ever had to ask them. She was willing to show us every home we wanted to see and was always upbeat and friendly. Her response to any questions we had by phone or email was almost immediate. We look forward to using Kenzie again when we purchase our next home!
