John McKenzie, PMP
REAL ESTATE ANALYST | CONSTRUCTION LAND DEVELOPMENT | PROJECT MANAGER
ABOUT ME
With 20+ years of experience across land development, investment analysis, and corporate real estate, I specialize in leading high-impact real estate initiatives from acquisition through delivery. I’ve directed multimillion-dollar residential and commercial developments, scaled national portfolios, and implemented financing structures like PIDs and MUDs to support long-term growth.
As VP of Corporate Real Estate at Caliber Home Loans, I expanded the national footprint from 62 to 421 locations, managing 2.8M+ SF and leading a $48M real estate budget. My transition into investment analysis at Build It Group sharpened my ability to evaluate risk, model returns, and support data-driven decision-making for acquisitions and market strategy.

Currently at M&A DevCo, I oversee the development of over 2,100 residential lots in DFW, managing entitlements, public financing, and construction execution. I’ve delivered 1,800+ lots in Austin and continue to align capital strategy with land use vision to maximize project value and community impact.
I’m known for my collaborative leadership style and ability to align cross-functional teams—engineers, legal, municipal, and financial stakeholders—toward common goals. Whether optimizing site plans, modeling cash flows, or securing entitlements, I take a strategic yet execution-focused approach that delivers measurable outcomes. My career is built on long-term thinking, disciplined project delivery, and creating value at every stage of the real estate cycle.
