Picture of Tim Hendricks
Tim Hendricks Broker/Owner

Tim has had a passion for real estate and investing since an early age, making his first Austin area investment while a sophomore at the University of Texas, and has not stopped since. A bit of a vagabond, he has lived, worked or sold a house in just about every corner of the Central Texas area. Investment properties are part of his long-term wealth creation and retirement strategy; he founded Hendricks Real Estate to share that passion with a broader community. Tim has helped many investors buy, lease and sell their properties, often sight-unseen by the investor.

Tim is a member of the National Association of Residential Property Managers (NARPM) and has achieved the Residential Management Professional (RMP®) designation, awarded to < 5% of property managers in the Austin area. He also holds the Texas Residential Leasing Specialist (TRLS) and Texas Residential Property Manager (TRPM) designations from the Texas Association of REALTORs.
