Our team

Two people. One standard.

McKenzie & Co is a Mount Maunganui real estate team led by Duncan McKenzie, alongside Ashleigh Smith, our Sales Associate. We’re hands-on, easy to reach and genuinely invested in the people and places we work with.

Duncan leads the strategy, marketing and negotiations. Ashleigh keeps the details running smoothly and clients up to date. Together, we’re backed by the systems, marketing reach and support of Ray White Bayfair — but you’ll always know who’s looking after you.

Duncan McKenzie

Licensed Salesperson · McKenzie & Co

Duncan believes good real estate advice starts with listening, knowing the local market and having a clear plan. His approach is practical, straightforward and focused on what matters most to each client.

With experience in construction, property renovation and development, he has an eye for presentation and the improvements that can make a difference before selling. From choosing the right method of sale to buyer conversations and negotiations, Duncan stays closely involved.

Clients know him for honest advice, clear communication and a calm approach when decisions matter. Outside work, Duncan volunteers with Fire and Emergency New Zealand at the Mount and enjoys giving back to the community he calls home.

How we work

Three commitments that guide  every campaign

Honest advice

We’ll tell you what we think, explain why, and give you the information to make your own decision with confidence.

Clear communication

You’ll hear from us regularly, understand what buyers are saying and know what happens next.

One team, one plan

Duncan leads the strategy and negotiations; Ashleigh coordinates the details and communication. We work together to keep your campaign moving.

Community

Local involvement that goes  beyond property

We live here, work here and are proud to contribute to the community through volunteering, local events, fundraising and supporting initiatives that bring people together.

For us, being local means more than knowing the streets. It means showing up and playing an active role in the place we call home.
