Martha Hendrick moved to Central Oregon in 2001, delighting clients with her charming
Southern hospitality. Combining an approachable personality with over three decades of solid, successful real estate expertise, Martha offers an experience that transcends mere business transactions.
“Martha is as warm and welcoming as her Southern accent,” says Bend client Sally Murphy.
“More important, she has over 30 years in the business and has strong knowledge and intuition about the market and the individual needs of her clients. Martha gets the job done!”
“Martha listens, then takes what you have to say and provides feedback that’s exactly what you asked for. She goes out of her way to understand your needs and then matches the best solution to meet (or exceed) those needs,” says client Chris Otto.
Martha’s interesting background reveals a passion for education and helping others. Graduating high school as Valedictorian, she went on to earn a BA at Baylor University in Waco, Texas., This was followed by an MA in English and Latin Studies at Baylor as Chapter President of Kappa Kappa Gamma and Elected Mortar Board member. Martha continued to postgraduate work at the University of North Carolina and College of William
and Mary in Williamsburg, Virginia, culminating in her thesis on the poetry of Emily Dickinson.
After many successful years as a teacher, and then professor at the University of Arkansas and Baylor University, Martha launched a full-time real estate career in 1983. “I think my passion for homes and real estate first started while helping at my father’s smalltown construction supply business. Each day after school I would walk to his store and spend my
afternoons surrounded by builders, remodelers, and skilled craftsmen,” Martha says. She built a company that was a model for real estate brokerages in Houston and quickly entered into the top 10 independent companies of a rapidly expanding market. In 1997, Greater Houston’s Builders Association selected Martha as REALTOR of the year out of
over 10,000 nominees.
