Meet Dennis and Martha Rush
Your Trusted Real Estate Partners

Welcome to the world of simplified real estate transactions! We are Dennis and Martha, and we are genuinely excited about the opportunity to assist you with your real estate endeavors. Our approach is a unique blend of professionalism with integrity, compassion, warmth, and discretion aimed at making your journey in the real estate market pleasant and successful.

Local Insights, Global Connections: With decades of experience in the Maui luxury real estate market, dating back to the early 1990s, we bring a wealth of local knowledge and global connections. Our expertise ensures that you receive the highest level of service, whether you're buying or selling a luxury property locally, nationally and/or globally!

Trailblazers in Real Estate: We take immense pride in being trailblazers in the real estate industry. Dennis holds the distinction of being the First COMPASS Hawaii Founding Broker helping to introduce COMPASS to Maui and Hawaii. He also serves as the Founding Broker for REALM Global, the COMPASS Luxury Division and the COMPASS Sports & Entertainment Division. Our dedication has consistently placed us in the Top 1% of Hawaii Realtors, competing with over 16,000 agents statewide. We are now honored to be #1 in COMPASS Maui sales volume.

Martha’s Story of Resilience and Community: Martha's journey from Trujillo, Peru, to becoming a proud U.S. citizen is a testament to her resilience and commitment over 12 years to doing things the right way. In addition to being a true real estate professional, she is also a bridge for the Latino community who speak little or no English, offering invaluable assistance with personal, business, medical, and legal transactions. Martha also speaks Italian, further enhancing her ability to serve a diverse clientele.

A Partnership Built on Love and Balance: Our personal and professional lives are deeply intertwined, and we cherish every aspect of our journey. We are grateful for our loving marriage, and we often say that we are the yin to each other's yang. Our families hold a special place in our hearts, as do our personal and professional relationships. We are very proud and happy that our daughter, Jaimie Rush Forbes, recently joined our COMPASS real estate team. We genuinely love the Maui lifestyle from its stunning sunrises and sunsets, our walks on the beach, our lifelong friendships, to the joy of entertaining at home.

Dennis’s Roots and Service to the Community: Dennis's roots lie in both Northern & Southern California, where he honed his sense of duty as an Eagle Boy Scout. He served his country for six years in the Army National Guard and holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management from California State University Sacramento. He also attended California State University San Jose and both he and the family are active members of the non-denominational Kihei Hope Chapel Christian Church.

Our commitment to community service is a significant part of who we are. We both assisted to serve food and necessities at Hope Chapel during the pandemic and Lahaina wild fire disaster. Dennis has served as a past Kihei Little League manager, kihei Little League Vice President, and Board of Director for Montessori Hale O‘ Keiki school. He has also been a Committee Member for the Noble Chef Charity Gala and served many years as Chairman of the Montessori Hale O‘ Keiki Charity Galas.

The causes close to our hearts include helping those in need from the 8/8/23 Lahaina wildfires, Maui Memorial Medical Center (MMMC), The V Foundation for Cancer Research, Alzheimer's Association, Maui Food Bank, Maui Arts and Cultural Center (MACC), Make-A-Wish Foundation, Friends of the Children‘s Justice Center, Josiah Ventures for Ukraine relief, St. Jude's, Hope Chapel Maui, Epic Church San Francisco, Samaritan's Purse, Angel Tree, Assistance Dogs of Hawaii, Women Helping Women, Village of Hope, Victory 4 Youth, Tunnel 2 Towers, Wounded Warriors and Disabled American Veterans.
