Personal Profile
A native of Toledo, Ohio, I moved to Hillsdale County in 1996, which led to my interest in real estate. As a career sales person, I have been one of Hillsdale County's most trusted Realtors ever since. I believe my clients choose to work with me for my ethical standards, experience and expertise. I am continually blessed to receive referrals from past clients which has allowed me to remain successful for so many years in this incredibly competitive sales environment. Among my buyers and valued clients are some of Hillsdale's most influential business owners and developers. I am honored to have earned the trust of many past clients, many of whom I can now call friends. I strongly believe that it is not only my duty to represent my clients to the best of my ability, but also to educate them throughout every step of the process. Armed with top notch information and market insight, my clients can make the best decisions possible. I am very honest, sometimes telling clients things they might not want to hear about the necessities of preparing their home for a successful marketing plan...after all, getting your property SOLD is the desired result! My extensive knowledge of the residential real estate market in Southern Michigan is unparalleled. I pride myself on giving my clients the most up-to-date feedback on the state of the market, its trends, comparable sales and property values, giving them a realistic outlook on what they can expect to achieve in today's real estate market. As a career sales person for the past 30+years, I am very comfortable with the art of negotiations. Prior to real estate, my other sales and marketing positions were in the residential/commercial alarm industry and as major account representative of copier/facsimile equipment.

Buyer reviewKaren was the listing agent. Karen is who I contacted once I found the property on Zillow. Karen showed us the property immediately and was knowledgeable about the property and surrounding area. Karen was very professional.

Buyer reviewMy husband and I were looking at a specific home in the area where my husband was transferring for his job. Karen Foust was the listing agent for the one particular home and because we did not know the area, we had not yet chosen a real estate agent. I immediately liked her while speaking on the phone with her! She was sharp and articulate and seemed to be sincerely interested in our need. We continued to look at other houses with her and she always put our need and our interest as a top priority! She was awesome and we would recommend her to anyone with full confidence that she would deliver all she promised---to give her all and give her best. One last thing---she treated us like we were her only clients (even though we knew she was incredibly busy! That is the best recommendation I can give!

Buyer reviewKaren Foust's assistance was excellent. She not only helped us negotiate and purchase property for building our new home, but helped us get acclimated to the area. The pandemic presented many challenges which Karen helped us navigate efficiently. Always friendly and never flustered, she is a top-notch professional.
