Helen Marston is a Broker with Keller Williams REALTY Central Oregon. Helen has been in real estate since 2009. She has recently moved from California to Central Oregon in 2019, continuing her REALTOR® career in Oregon!
What made her make a career in real estate? “I like the freedom of not only how to work and how much to work, but also the choices I can make based on integrity. I also like to help people build wealth through real estate.”
Helen has received the appointments serving as a RPAC Trustee 2021-2023 and on the Diversity Committee 2021-2022 for Oregon REALTORS®. From 2013 to 2019, she served on Legislative, Local Government and Global Real Estate committees for CAR, and was President of her local association in 2018. She has also received several certification and designations for GRI, CRS, CIPS, SRES, SFR, BPOR, MRP, and C2EX.
Her advice to those just starting out: “Spend time to get educated and designated.” Helen recommends “following the Code of Ethics, and taking the Prospecting, Data Building, Communication and Negotiation skills” courses to help develop skills and experience. Aside from designations, she also recommends real estate coaching. “Those programs have helped me throughout the years. They not only improved my business and personal life, but also dramatically changed my mindset! Be teachable and coachable.”
Outside of real estate, Helen has spent a lot of time volunteering in her community, schools, and serving as city planning commissioner before she moved from California. She has already gotten involved in her new community since moving to Oregon. Besides working with the community, she loves to cook, travel and work out.
On her bucket list? She would love to travel to Alaska and Europe one day. She is also planning to go crabbing and clamming. Here’s to Helen being able to one day enjoy that catch!
