Welcome to Mel Foster Co.

THINKING OF SELLING? CALL ME FIRST! I was one of the first nine Accredited Staging Professionals in the Quad Cities. I have special training to help you "Stage"® your house. Staging® a house has proven to bring higher sales prices in active markets and in slower markets shortened the time on the market. To date, most houses I've staged have sold in two months or less. This is a service I offer FREE for all of my listing.  

 

As a Mel Foster Co. agent, I am committed to conducting business with the utmost honesty and integrity. I believe that professionalism and commitment are vital to personal service. I'll take the time and leverage the resources necessary to sell your home in the shortest amount of time for the highest price possible!

Whether buying your first home, moving up to a larger home, downsizing or buying your retirement or vacation home I look forward to helping you establish and meet your goals.  I specialize in helping  buyers relocate to our area.  Because of my vast knowledge of  what the Quad Cities has to offer newcomers Mel Foster's Relocation Department relies on my services.  My expertise helps many local companies relocate employees into the Quad Cities area. Unlike most area Realtors I have been relocated across the country three times myself. Not only do I KNOW your needs I ANTICIPATE them. Finding the right home in any new city is a tedious, time consuming job. Everything you need to know about buying a home can be found here on my Web site! My site is designed to provide you with up-to-date information on school districts, community information and more!   Don't hesitate to call me if you have any questions or concerns.  I'm here to help you

I have been relocated myself three times so I know what your needs are and I recognize how you are feeling. I have helped many families relocate to the Quad Cities and have helped many clients sell their homes when they have been relocated elsewhere. I not only know what your needs are, I anticipate them. About 50% of my business is helping clients with their relocation needs, both buying and selling homes.  Nobody knows this town like I do! Whether you are looking for school information, moving assistance or cost of living comparisons near and far, I will provide you with the most up-to-date facts. If you are moving from this area, to anywhere in the world, and need to know where to start, I can assist you. Just click here to Email Me.

 

  I will listen to your needs and we will establish our goals and objectives together. We will work as a team to meet those goals and you will continually be in the loop during the entire process. In this fast paced market I believe communication is key in meeting our goals and building our relationship. Knowing that you are reading this right now, tells me that you are comfortable with the Internet and email and that means you will be able to take advantage of my 24 hour electronic assistant right here on my Website.
