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.

Seller reviewShould receive realtor of the year nomination hands down! Karen went above and beyond with not only handling all documentation with the selling process, but also meeting every single need I had during this time which usually is very stressful but with her couldn't have been easier. Her evaluation of other properties to come up with a competitive price for my home was spot on and her abundance of knowledge and excellent explanations of every step was flawless. I could not recommend Karen Foust more and hope to bring her and Century 21 more business that they deserve, 5 stars!

Buyer reviewKaren is the BEST!. When making such a big decision, I wanted to work with someone that I could trust. Karen was there every step of the way. She always answered every call or email no matter what time of day or night it was. Her professionalism, mentorship, knowledge, honesty, and hard work ethic are much respected and appreciated. She went above and beyond. She anticipated needs and met them all with a smile on her face, and offered exceptional advice. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and made the purchase of a commercial building seamless.
