Renee Foster

As comfortable, but aging, 30-year Lake Norman area residents, my husband Mike and I were warily considering downsizing from our large lakeview home amid lush landscaping and returning to Charlotte, NC, where we had raised our children. We (mainly me) envisioned buying a townhouse or condo near our oldest daughter there; but the requisite "transition" details of house selling and searching had delayed our acting on this "vision". Our Charlotte daughter recommended we "at least consult with Renee Foster," a Charlotte realtor and our daughter's fellow soccer mom. By February, 2022, Mike and I agreed to meeting in our home with Renee, whose humor and good company he recalled whenever we went to our grandson's soccer events over the years. (Mike was especially leery of leaving the ease of our LKN living in order to acquire smaller Charlotte "quarters" and risking our financial comfort.) Knowing it would take an exceptional real estate professional to ease Mike's reluctance to this life-changing project, I suspected Renee was the answer to our realtor worries. Renee's success in the Charlotte market, her willingness to drive the 30+ miles to our LKN home and to tackle that market, PLUS her humorous personality definitely eased our realtor skepticism. Renee's patient, detailed explanation to us of the fast-paced, cash-dominant home sales market in LKN and in Charlotte addressed our worries that our home sale would be fast, maybe furious, but profitable. And she delivered! By mid-March, Renee patiently, diligently, and creatively located an affordable, large townhome in our SPECIFIED secluded park side location just 10 minutes from our daughter's home! We bought it; then listed our LKN home which sold 30 hours later for an unimagined price as Renee had assured us! Renee Foster's dogged service to our needs (from selling to buying to closings to remodeling to moving in) has sealed our high regard for her professionalism and for her friendship!!!
