Rise Transaction Management was founded in 2019 with the mission to elevate real estate agents to new heights. We understand that running a successful business requires time, energy, and dedication - which is why our team is committed to handling the administrative details so that agents can focus on what they do best.

Our ultimate goal is to help agents achieve a greater level of success, not just in their careers, but in their personal lives as well. 

Our Mission

By freeing up their time and energy, agents are able to make a bigger impact in their communities, spend more quality time with their clients and loved ones, and ultimately create a ripple effect of positive change.

At Rise, we also believe in fostering a positive, faith-based work environment that values diversity and mental health. We're dedicated to supporting our team members in living their best lives and finding fulfillment through serving others.

Kristina Foster

CEO, Owner, Realtor 

Real Estate is my life! I live it, breathe it, study it. I love the ever changing industry and could never see myself doing anything else! I’ve been in Real Estate since 2013 and have pretty much done it all… from selling, managing contracts to leading a team. Everyday I wake up, I’m thankful that I have one of the best jobs in the world here at RISE Transaction Management Company!

Outside of work, I love to spend time with my friends, family & my small groups. My people give me the charge I need in life to keep going. I have 2 amazing kids and a daughter in-law that are the love of my life. My favorite days are family game days, hiking, Mountain Biking or a good workout or run will do. Above all my favorite time is spent with my CEO, my Father, my Savior (Jesus Christ)

Jenny Franke

Transaction Manager

I am passionate about helping others! I have a servant heart and I love that this job allows me to use that to serve my agents! I love the real estate industry and am actively working towards getting my real estate license. Applying my love for organization, making lists and helping others in this business has been such a joy over the past year and a half that I have been a part of the RISE team!

I reside in Round Rock, TX with my husband and our two children. Our amazing kids keep us busy with baseball and dance activities. If you cannot find me, I am probably at a ballfield, dance performance or driving someone around to a practice! I love reading in any spare time I have and most enjoy any chance I can get to the beach.

Kenedy Carew

Transaction Manager, Realtor

Honesty and integrity, along with determination and optimism, are philosophies that I strive for in all aspects of life. Applying these values to my real estate career has helped me be able to give the best service to our clients. My background as a licensed real estate agent since 2020 has given me a record of closing smooth transactions by applying good management, knowledge, and professionalism to all. My passion for helping others makes it so easy to love my job!

After growing up, attending college, and living in San Antonio for 23 years, I now reside on the Texas coast. I enjoy spending time outdoors, preferably on, in, or around the water with family and friends! I also am a proud volunteer at the Amos Rehabilitation Keep, often capturing some picture-perfect moments of the wildlife. I strive every day to make my family proud of who I am and who I am becoming. I have so many goals, dreams, and ambitions, and am constantly finding new passions. But overall, faith is what continues to give me my purpose.

Samantha Spalding

Transaction Manager

With faith and determination, I am diving into this exciting industry, ready to bring true value to my clients and teammates. My family motto is, "service is noble", and I strive to have that daily mindset. As a transaction manager, I would love to add ease to your contract-to-close experience through my diligent communication and organizational skillset!

I was raised in the suburbs of Philadelphia and attended what is now Thomas Jefferson University. In 2020, my family and I took a leap of faith to move to our dream city of Austin, Texas. I love a good adventure, whether it's traveling internationally or exploring this beautiful state with my husband and two boys. On the weekends, you'll find me tracking down live music and other local outdoor events. I'm just in awe of the community that we've been blessed with over the past four years here and I can't wait to foster more relationships!

Our mission is simple: to provide exceptional services that allow you to be more present in your business and, in turn, enable you to spend more valuable time with your clients, families, and communities. We call it the "Butterfly Effect" - the idea that every single action, task, and service we offer can make a positive impact on your success.

Our team is made up of individuals who are strong, determined, and relentlessly focused on helping you thrive while knowing that every single thing we do - every task, every service - matters. We pray together, we do life together, and we are incredibly thankful for every person that God has placed in this company and on this team. They all have hearts of gold and are fully committed to helping you succeed.

We are committed to making a difference at RISE so that you can go out and make a difference in your own life and in the lives of those around you. Let us be the partner you need to take your business to the next level and achieve your dreams.
