henderson land investment company was created in 1978 by Stephen and Lee Henderson.  We operated out of our home on US Route 36 near Saint Paris where Lee hand painted each real estate sign.  That year we took our 6 rural listings, our three children, and Stephen’s field tile collection to the Champaign County Fair.

In 1982  the building at 104 South Springfield Street in Saint Paris became available and we purchased it.  At that time interest rates were climbing and the real estate market was limping along.  The people in Graham District were very supportive and we were on our way to becoming the full service Champaign County real estate company you now know.

It wasn’t until 1989 that team henderson took the plunge and decided to open a convenient location for our customers and clients in Urbana and on the east side of the county.  Our first Urbana location was on Monument Square where Duncan’s Accounting Services are now located.   From there we moved our present Urbana location at 970 East Route 36 sharing the building with Studio 36 owned by Susan and David Oelker.

In 1996 Gina Roseberry joined our management team as our valuable office manager with her exceptional organizational and internet technology skills.

In 2004 we chose to open yet another office back in downtown Urbana at 122 Miami Street. Terrry Markin of Marmor Construction owns this building and we share his office space.  This location has easy access for our customers and clients who move around in wheelchairs and who shop downtown. Access to the Columbus MLS is available at the 122 Miami Street office.

In 2004, we also expanded  team henderson to include several younger associates as well as an internet technology manager and a marketing manager.  At henderson land investment company we believe that choices are more fun.  We invite you to choose one of our 5 locations (including this web site, and the annual fair office in the merchant’s building) and one of our fine team henderson associates to help you find either the perfect property or the perfect buyer.

As always, we at team henderson thank you for allowing us to be of service again and again since 1978.  Locations are important in real estate, but we  believe our associates are our greatest assets.  Please click on the team henderson tab to learn more about our associates.
