Some people move to Northern Michigan and fall in love with the place. Erica and Marc Foerster grew up here and never really wanted to leave.

A Foundation Built on Real Experience

When buyers and sellers ask what makes The Foerster Group different, the honest answer starts long before either agent held a real estate license.

Erica spent more than 20 years teaching marketing in Traverse City before making real estate her full time calling in 2016. That background shows up in how she positions a property, tells its story, and connects it with the right buyer.

Executive Experience Meets Local Knowledge

Marc came to real estate by a different road. After serving in the U.S. Army and spending years as Vice President of Sales and Marketing at a Fortune 150 company, he brought negotiation experience and strategic thinking most agents simply do not have. A lifelong love of architecture and years of hands on remodeling experience mean Marc looks at a home the way a buyer should, spotting what others miss.

Recognized Results

That combination has earned real recognition. The Foerster Group has received the President's Club award five years running along with the Top Producer Award, and Erica served as past president of the Women's Council of Realtors.

What This Means for You

If you are asking who should sell your Northern Michigan home or help you find one, the answer is a team with over $200 million in closed sales, a top 1% national ranking, and two decades of combined executive and marketing expertise focused entirely on this region.

Local Roots, Lasting Relationships

Erica and Marc Foerster are not just agents who work in Northern Michigan. They are neighbors who grew up here, invested their careers here, and built a business here. That rootedness is at the heart of everything they do, and it is exactly why so many buyers and sellers trust The Foerster Group with the biggest transaction of their lives.
