Working with Team Foster was a wonderful experience! We really enjoyed working with all of their staff. From the first meeting, they were prepared with a plan, marketing suggestions and great advice. From staging, to photography, showings, open houses, communication and execution, this team delivers top-notch service! They work hard and are relentless at everything they do and their results speak for themselves. It was truly a pleasure to work with them. This Team genuinely cares about their clients and strive to make the process as smooth and stress free as possible. We wish them continued success and highly recommend Team Foster!!!
Team Foster is the epitome of residential real estate professionalism. We bought a home, and sold a home, with Team Foster, all within a tight 4-5 week period. Their attention to detail, clear and prompt communication, candid counsel, and action-oriented network were first rate. Highly recommend without reservation.
The market turned as we went on the market and this team was incredible. They kept on working and trying new things. More than that—they were patient with us and never took anything we said as personal. They were always there for us and had our back. We were lucky to get an offer in the market as it is and it is down to the team being ace.
We were thrilled beyond words to have Tere and her team as our Realtors! We have had MANY previous waterfront transactions both as seller and as buyer, but this was BY FAR our best experience. We were sellers in a somewhat uncertain market. She lead us through each step of the way. What really sold us on her services was the INCLUSION OF STAGING, AND THE TEAM APPROACH. It was like having an interior design team, a marketing team and a negotiation team. We moved out before listing so the team could do their work (was it magic?) The result was beautiful. The photos were fit for Architectural Digest. Tere helped us choose a price. The day after listing we had a spectacular turnout...and several good offers. We could not have asked for more.
Team Foster is outstanding. They are deservedly recognized as the Northwest’s premier, high-performance real estate agency. Their decades of experience, extensive network of trusted partnerships, and attention to detail sets an impressive benchmark. They provided thoughtful collaboration, constructive communications, innovation, real time market awareness, and sure-footed guidance throughout the process of selling a home. Foster operates as a cohesive team with highly talented staff, positivity, and a client-first orientation. In a word: Exceptional.
We researched many realtors before listing with Team Foster. Having built our home 12 years prior with the intentions of staying there forever, we were looking for an agency who would present and market our home highlighting its craftsmanship and attention to detail. Communication is the key to success in any partnership, Team Foster showed us why they are the premier real estate agency in the Northwest. From our first meeting to our closing her impressive team of highly trained professionals made certain every step of the process was handled stress free. They worked together seamlessly, from our stager to our transaction manager and everyone in between, they kept us up to date in real time. When our home hit the MLS we were amazed by the exceptional quality of all the images and videos. Our home sold in eight short days and again, Team Foster was there to handle all the details so we could focus on packing and moving. We highly recommend Team Foster. Look no further. As my husband says, “Bravo Team Foster!”
Upon deciding to sell our home, we met with several agents, all very established with incredible track records. From our first conversation, we knew Tere and Moya were going to provide best-in-class service for us as their clients and to potential buyers. We were not disappointed!!! From the first meeting Team Foster Immediately took the complications of selling our home off our hands. Their knowledge of the local real estate market proved to be invaluable. While Tere and Moya are at the top of their game, they always made us feel like we were their only client, always available to connect and move the process forward efficiently. We can’t recommend Team Foster enough!!!
Team Foster has all the skills and support you need when buying or selling a house. They did a market survey to determine the price at which to list our home. In this difficult market, their recommendation was spot on, and we received an offer which resulted in a sale. They staged the home, which really made it presentable for sale. In all aspects of the transactions, they took on the burden from start to finish. Quite simply, “they are the best!”
Team Foster represented us in selling our home in the Windermere neighborhood. Their team was very professional and extremely responsive. They expertly coordinated all aspects of the transaction, including cleaning, painting, staging, photographing, writing marketing copy, listing, showing, negotiating and closing. Their team is a well oiled machine with a personal touch. We couldn't have asked for anything more.
Team Foster provided impeccable service with a thoughtful, caring approach. The knowledge, experience, and resources that are available to you when working with this organization are impeccable. Each team member exceeded my expectations, and provided professional, steady guidance throughout the selling experience.
Tere Foster and her team were a pleasure to work with on the recent sale of our home. She helped us understand the current market and what we had to do to prepare our home for market. She was very attentive and stayed focused on our property until it had closed, and we had moved out. We would highly recommend Tere and her team
I want to acknowledge what a pleasure it has been working with all of you. This office has been involved in what seems like one hundred real estate transactions, both nationally and some outside of the country and it can be challenging without having a physical presence. Your entire team eliminated these challenges, were extremely responsive, and without question, you are the most professional group I’ve had the pleasure of working with.
Great guidance! Their suggestions on preparation and staging were critical. The team is highly responsive and professionally organized. They worked collaboratively with clockwork precision. Knowledge of the market was deep and valuable. Pricing advice and education was accurate and thoughtful. An amazing experience! Thanks TF!
Tere and her team provided the highest level of service on two recent transactions. She helped us find our dream home and helped us sell our current home. Throughout both transactions the service and professionalism were off the charts. We are very happy with the results of both transactions. We highly recommend Tere and team.
Dear Tere: We would like to thank you and your team for all your hard work and diligence in selling our waterfront home. We knew we had the best team helping us and our experience with you could not have been better. You exceeded every aspect of our expectations. We look forward to the purchase of our next home with you!
I would highly recommend Team Foster. They are highly knowledgeable about the area, very responsive, and experienced negotiators. They get showings lined up quickly and make it happen! They helped me get in my dream home fast! I always felt confident during negotiations because I knew Team Foster was up to bat for me!
Superbly professional! The Team coordinated the whole process. Got the house prepared, studied the market and managed the entire process. They are the leaders in Bellevue and understand the dynamics of the market superbly. Easy to work with as well, they made a stressful process easier to manage. I would highly recommend them.
Foster Realty did an incredible job of staging and marketing; our house went into contract the second day it went on the market and closed in less than one month. They made sure the transaction was smooth and took care of everything.
Tere is a true professional that guided us through every step in the purchase of our home. She has tremendous knowledge of the market skillfully represented us on every issue that came up. We would highly recommend her and her team.
Words cannot describe how amazing Team Foster was to work with. After the passing of a loved one Tere and her team handled the sale of the family members former home.In what was a very emotional situation they came in and brought a sense of peace and professionalism that I will always be grateful for. Tere has cultivated a group of exceptionally talented people who each bring a vast skill set to the function they perform on her team.The almost overwhelming prospect of selling a fully furnished home encompassing a lifetime of personal belongings was turned into a very manageable and at times shockingly simple process. That experience as a client was only made possible by the very hard work and well established resources of Team Foster.Once the house went to market they did a phenomenal job representing the property. The strategic approach the team took resulted in a sale well over asking price.To anyone reading this review I strongly urge you to use this wonderful team. These are truly gifted people and the opportunity to work with them was an absolute privilege. Thank you Team Foster!
I recently bought and sold homes with Team Foster in the course of four months. From the first high-touch walk through at my home to the support with finding service providers, outlining steps needed, sending reminders of actions, follow-up commuications, and helping answer questions at all hours, this is the Dream Team in every sense. I also noticed that the buyers and sellers for each property took notice when they heard we were working with Tere and Moya. Their reputation is gold class in Seattle and well deserved. I can’t recommend them enough in every way.
Tere Foster and her entire team did the impossible! She sold my house in less than 2 months, during the peak of the corona-virus lock-down, while I was on my honeymoon. Team Foster helped me clean out my house from afar, staged it, arranged for the trims to be trimmed on my neighbor’s property, and did everything else that’s required to put a home on the market. Tere found an all-cash buyer, worked out a tricky title / property-line issue, and closed the transaction on time. Team Foster is not just a slogan, but an accurate description of Tere’s work style. Every interaction with each of her half-dozen team members was prompt, professional, and pleasant. No ball ever got dropped.
We were extremely pleased and satisfied with how you and your team handled the marketing and selling of our home. All of you were professional, knowledgeable and excellent communicators. There was always someone from your team available should we have any questions, and everyone was up to speed as to what was going on with the house. I also really appreciated the proactive approach you and your team took in addressing any issues.
Team Foster was the best decision we had to sell our house. We had being talking about selling for a year before we were ready. We had gotten advice from a handful of agents and we are so glad we went to Team Foster. The complimentary staging made a HUGE difference. We had various problem with our house and they were there to supervise the work that needed to be done after we moved out the house and while we were in Europe. They were honest with us and gave us proper expectation the whole time. Extremely professional. Highly recommended!
We reviewed information from several agents and brokers and interviewed a select few. Tere Foster and her team are who we selected. She is excellent at seeing the value in your house and setting the price accordingly. The advertisement placement and marketing materials were very well done. And, she has an outstanding team supporting her and answering all your questions. However, the main reason we picked Tere and Team Foster for our sale is that she is an excellent negotiator.
If you are buying/selling, Team Foster is your go-to. Their professional agents know the area, make the entire transaction smooth, and are quick on the draw. The team’s collaborative approach ensures that when you work with one person, you are working with all members of the team. I cannot recommend Team Foster, Tere Foster, and Lance Harwell any higher. You will not be disappointed.
We have worked with Tere and Team Foster many times and they are the best. Tere has an incredible knowledge of the market and what timing is required to get a house sold. Team Foster are true professionals, wonderful to work with and very responsive. Tere and the team staged our house for sale and it it sold in just over a week. If you want to sell your home you could be in no better hands than Team Foster.
Team Foster surpassed our expectations with regards to knowledge and customer service. They reached out to an attorney to make sure the title report was up to date. This kept us from buying a property that had limitations which the seller had not disclosed. Thank you, Team Foster, for treating our investment as if it were your own!
Great team, very attentive to every detail. The best house selling experience we’ve ever had and this was the 8th house we’ve sold but the first with Team Foster. All the staff were professional, pleasurable and very skilled at what they do. Exceptional staging within their team was another key service they provided. Highly recommended Team Foster!
Tere, Moya and Team Foster did an outstanding job helping our family purchase of our first home. They assisted with every step from start to finish in such a professional manner and made us feel so comfortable and supported along the way. The entire process was seamless and we couldn’t be more thankful for all they did for us. It was an absolute pleasure working with this team.
Moya + the team at Team Foster were incredible helping us find our first home! From educating us about all the home things we didn’t know we needed to know, to sending us emails the second a new home hit the market—we felt cared for and understood all the way through the process.After purchase, this level of care continued as they walked us through all of the services and appointments we needed to get into the house. It was incredibly reassuring knowing they would respond in an instant if we had any question, especially feeling like there was so much we didn’t know.We would recommend Moya + Team Foster to anyone!
From beginning to end, they know the business, the market, and all the small touches that make challenging experiences manageable. We have been through three major transactions with Team Foster and each one was handled flawlessly. If something goes wrong, they immediately know how to fix it. They bring the highest level of professionalism and goodwill to clients on both sides of the transaction. They are also kind, fun people who enjoy what they are doing and take the stress out of it! Thank you Team Foster!
One of the most important decisions we make in our lives, is buying or selling our home. Competent brokers thus play a crucial role. Tere Foster and her entire team are highly competent, professional, responsive, courteous, and knowledgeable. The process of selling my house went smoothly as any question that arose was handled efficiently and promptly. From complimentary staging to the beautiful photos and marketing materials, everything was excellent. I can't say enough good things about this team!
If you are looking for a team (in every sense of the word!) who can handle the sale of your home, from first walk-through to seamless closing, Team Foster is the place for you. While located 3,000 miles away, during a pandemic, Team Foster facilitated the entire process from overseeing repairs, moving, staging, lawn maintenance, and strategically establishing a sales price, to negotiating the final deal and ensuring a drama-free closing. Team Foster is simply the best. Concierge service at its best!
Great team of folks. Super organized, respectful, and professional. I also appreciated the followup on all issues, good communication skills. They get the job done.
Tere, Moya and the full Team Foster are probably the most competent real state Partners you can find in the Bellevue area: the combination of years of experience, the highest quality marketing materials, the immediate response on every question, and the outstanding Team members gave us full confidence during the full process.After we purchased our new home with them being the seller's agent, we decided to hire Team Foster for selling our previous home. Not only it was fast and seamless: the feeling of having someone expert by your side who you can trust made us feel very well accompanied during the process.
We were given several names of top real estate agents. We decided to work with Moya Skillman and Tere Foster from Team Foster. They are truly the best of the best! Team Foster was dedicated to making sure we found the right house that met all our priorities and needs and within our price range. As great as a Realtor might be with their clients, what is equally important is the respect and reputation they have within the industry and with their peers. Whenever we told someone that we were working with Tere and Moya, the consistent response was, “Oh, you are with the very best!” The Fosters’ outstanding service hasn’t ended with the “close” of our home, even after moving in, they continue to help with any of our new owner needs. Moya, Tere and Team Foster have gone above and beyond our greatest expectations. We feel so lucky and thankful to have been referred to Team Foster!
After an experience with another agent, I went to Tere for her local market expertise and her relationships with other agents and the local business community. Equally important to me was the strong team she had behind her. They ensured that everything with our sale went smoothly and professionally from staging, photography and marketing prep, to negotiating and closing the deal. We were so pleased with the way it was handled that we chose to use them on what we thought would be a simple purchase. As it turned out, there were numerous challenges with that transaction. Tere’s team took it in stride and helped us through the tough spots while at the same time facilitating the quickest possible close. I would happily use her and her team again and will be referring them to my friends!
My husband and I have three children and both work. We were looking for experience and full service with outstanding attention to detail every step of the way when we decided to sell a house on Capitol Hill. Team Foster exceeded our expectations during every phase of the process: pre-sale preparation and planning (getting our home ready to sell and moving us out); staging the home for market (free for Team Foster clients); pricing our home (this was data-based and also informed by years of experience in various market cycles); open houses and showings ; negotiation; closing (we closed five days after accepting an offer well over asking price). I would add that Team Foster’s advice and communication around the offers on our home—we had several—was exceedingly thorough, thoughtful, and experienced. I felt they left no stone unturned in the marketing (including social media) and more generally in the sale of our house, and I would want my parents to work with them, my siblings, my closest friends, and neighbors. I could write a poem, “how do I love Team Foster, let me count the ways…”
If you are looking for an agent for a high-end home transaction, look no further: Tere Foster and her team are the very definition of excellence! We just completed our 3rd transaction with them (a purchase this time in Ballard after two previous sales in Medina) and we couldn’t be more pleased with their professional execution and results! They found a buyer for us during the first transaction in a week, after we had the house listed with another agent for over 6 months! Several years later, our second house sold in days! And we couldn’t be more pleased with our just-closed home purchase today. Tere and Team Foster truly are the Michael Jordan & Chicago Bulls of Washington real estate!
Tere, Moya, and the entire team are extremely professional and knowledgeable. We felt very well supported during the entire process, from the initial visit through, pricing, all the prep work and staging, the final sale, and beyond. I was pleasantly surprised with the team work after the sale, helping us find movers and handling all the final steps, even hiring a handyman to fix drywall where we had pictures. I got constant updates from the team members on how things were progressing during the entire process and every time I needed to contact them the response was immediate. I worked with other real estate agents in the past in both Seattle and in the Bay Area, and the level of service I got from Team Foster was much superior to everything I experienced in the past. I highly recommend Tere and Moya, without any reservation!
Team Foster helped us with selling and buying our homes and they were truly wonderful to work with from start to finish. Communication and responsiveness were very important to us and Team Foster always kept us informed every step of the way. Their expertise, reputation and connections were critical in buying our home and it was the same expertise that enabled us to sell our existing home in 3 days for 10% over asking. We really value their partnership and won’t hesitate to work with them again in the future.
We have worked with Team Foster in the past and we were beyond impressed with the entire process. I recently closed on a home with Moya as my agent, and never could of imagined what a incredible experience I had with Moya. I have always respected Moya and her humble ways as she exhibits such professionalism. Moya is honest, genuine and is determined to find the “perfect” home for her client—and that she did! I can’t thank her and her team enough. Their entire team is remarkable, in my opinion, there is no other team like Team Foster!
