Mark Foster
Austin · Travis County
Homes chosen carefully, for people who plan to stay.
Fifteen years in Central Austin. I take four clients at a time, so when you call, you get a real answer.
I grew up off South Congress and still live two streets from where I started.
I work with first-time buyers and the people selling them their first house.

Mark talked us out of the first house we wanted. He was right. We have been in the second one for six years.

How I work
Since 2009
Most agents measure themselves in closings. I measure in the number of clients who send me their friends. That means fewer listings at once, more time in each house, and the occasional honest don't buy this one.
- Four clients at a time, never more.
- I answer my own phone.
- Every offer comes with a written why.
Questions? Read the long version or book twenty minutes.
Where I work
- Zilker Walk to the springs; watch the flood map.
- Bouldin Creek Old bungalows next to new builds.
- Travis Heights Hills, oaks, no two houses alike.
- Tarrytown Quiet, expensive, worth it if the school matters.

Your house, priced by someone who has walked it twice
Before I name a number I walk the house once with you and once alone. The second walk is where the price comes from.
What is my home worth?
Ready when you are.
Tell me what you are looking for, and I will send the homes worth seeing.

Things I keep explaining
What a 1940s house actually costs to own
The roof, the pier-and-beam, the pecans. Real numbers from four of my clients.
Why I only take four clients at a time
It is not a marketing line. It is arithmetic.
