Why Work With Us?
Here's what our satisfied customers are saying about us:
I was expecting the sale of our home to be nerve-wracking and time consuming, but Betsy was a pleasure to work with and got the job done while exceeding expectations. Listing to closing in 32 days! Betsy is professional, meticulous, communicative, accessible, reassuring, and efficient. Betsy knows this area/market very well and is well known in this area so her network of potential buyers is strong. I would highly recommend Betsy Lawrence to anyone in our region who is hoping to sell their home – Betsy gets the job done and does it so well!

“From the moment I contracted with Martha about selling my parents home, she handled every detail promptly and efficiently. In less than a single day she had prepared a market analysis and pricing strategy. Martha clearly and concisely laid out every step of the process, never leaving me uninformed. She guided me effortlessly through the multiple tasks of staging the home, closing out permits, verifying betterment liens, obtaining final tax and sewer bills and, most importantly, just calling to see if my wife and I were ok whereas we were selling the home of my recently deceased mother. Martha helped my family achieve closure with warmth, grace and a kind of personal attention I doubt others could match. If I were to create a seminar for home sellers it would be titled: The Three P’s of Real Estate: Preparation, Presentation and Pendergast!” That’s all there is to it.”
Kevin Juaire, Seller Client
“Real Estate transactions involve so much more than just negotiating a fair price, and Martha is an expert negotiator, but she also brings with her a wealth of knowledge and relationships with key professionals who will form your team. She knows the right questions to ask and how to mitigate issues that arise during inspection and she understands how a seller thinks and how to position yourself (as a buyer) to drive the transaction to completion. Perhaps, most importantly, she does it all with the most class and integrity. We are so grateful to have had Martha on our side!”
James Gabriel, Seller and Buyer Clients
“It is with great pride that I submit this letter of recommendation on behalf of my Realtor, Martha Pendergast who recently helped me complete the sale of a property in West Falmouth on Cape Cod. This property had weathered many challenges related to access, zoning, neighbours’ opposition and had been on the market for quite some time prior to my contacting Martha about listing it. Ms. Pendergast showed exceptional insights, a high level of self-motivation, and an enormous depth of knowledge in the Real Estate Industry. Martha is not simply a licensed Broker; she is also an intellectual outside-the-box thinker and a kind and honest deal-closer with unwavering loyalty. I’m so glad I reached out to her for assistance!”
Jo C. Guidoboni, Seller Client
"I just sold my home in Falmouth with Martha’s help and have nothing but good things to say about my experience with her. First, she was positive about the property and its strong points, while being realistic about the drawbacks. She took a reasoned approach to pricing the home but did not undersell it. Second, she has absolute integrity and takes her responsibilities to her client and her client’s liability very seriously. I would buy a home from a seller represented by her with absolute confidence about disclosures, etc. I really felt that her first allegiance was to me, and in a transaction as serious as selling your home, that counts for a lot. Third, she is very experienced and a tireless researcher. She plans ahead to anticipate the various things that can befall a real estate transaction. She had recommendations for different professionals in the area and seemed to know just about everybody. Finally, she was completely available at all hours. All around, Martha Pendergast is a terrific Realtor, and I could not have been happier with her work. I recommend her wholeheartedly!"

“I had the opportunity to work with Martha recently on the purchase of a property in West Falmouth. My wife and I were not very familiar with the area, but had come across an interesting listing of hers. Right out of the gate she was extremely helpful in answering questions we had and if she didn’t have an immediate answer, she took the action item and quickly got back to us with accurate information. She had a great rapport with her Seller Clients, and there were always full and proper disclosures. Needless to say, we purchased the property and have been absolutely delighted with it, and can’t wait for the spring and summer months. The Purchase and Sale documents process and the subsequent closing were a piece of cake and I attribute this to Martha staying on top of the proceedings. I highly recommend Martha, as she was very friendly, easy to work with, very knowledgeable about the area and always extremely professional.”
William Foniri, Buyer Customer
“I recently sold my condo in Mashpee and bought a house in New Seabury after looking for two years for the right place. I couldn’t be more pleased with Martha Pendergast, my broker, who spent numerous hours for me and with me during this time. She has many years experience and expertise under her belt and goes out of her way to make sure her clients are properly cared for. If the need or desire arises again, she’ll be my choice to call!”

“Thank you does not really do justice to the service, wisdom, and friendship you offered to Anne and me as we began our search back to the cape and this area that we have fallen in love with. There are a few things that really stood out for us, along with the many other areas of support. * Your knowledge of the area, and your ability to discern a good value, and keep us away from homes and areas that were not good values. * The amount of time and patience you put in to clearly understand what was important to us. * Your knowledge based on years of experience of contractors that could help us determine the quality of the homes we were interested in, which protected us in one offer and allowed us to retract the offer. We are so grateful that we moved on from that home with your support and resources. * Your honesty when the right home did come along to move us along faster, because you knew the home was a good value in a great location. Your confidence in knowing what we wanted gave us the confidence to trust you to get our offer in quickly and get in the car immediately to see the home. That dynamic and set of events won us this home, and we are so in love with it, and grateful for your skilled judgment. * Finally, your skilled negotiation tactics that once again won us the home among multiple suitors. Your ability to read the fast-moving situation and skilled offer presentation separated us from the other offers. Martha is much more than a realtor to us; she is a savvy businesswoman with many years of experience in her field who took the time to really understand what was important to us. She has become a great friend, and I would recommend her combinations of skill, wisdom, hard work, and personal touch to anyone interested in buying or selling a home.”

"I highly recommend Martha Pendergast if anyone is in the market for a Realtor. Between my husband and I, we have bought and sold houses, separately and together, and had good, one significantly terrible, and even a great experience with our realtor in Maryland. Martha is truly in a class all by herself. She was very knowledgeable, especially in a brand-new market for us. Very professional, hardworking, but most of all, fought for us in a uniquely fierce, fair, and ethical fashion. In addition, she was kind and thoughtful. I needed special assistance since I am handicapped, and she was helpful in an unobtrusive way. You will not find a better Realtor in the Falmouth area who will fight for your every need in an informed and elegant way. She is truly a gem. Here's hoping she has time to fight for you!"
Beth MacDonald and John Collier, Seller and Buyer Clients
“When deciding to start looking for a home of our own to start a family, Martha was highly recommended by one of my own clients/friends. We were told that if we wanted to have a realtor involved who was very knowledgeable and driven to help us achieve the goal we were striving for, Martha was the woman to do it. Being first time homeowners, it was all exciting and very nerve wracking, but not only did Martha help find us our first home, she made sure it was the perfect home. As nervous and anxious as the whole process was, she guided us the entire way making the experience of buying a home totally worth the hard work, stress and excitement. We are so thankful for everything she has done for us and we highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a new home.”
