Hi Janice:
Unfortunately, I cannot, in good faith, provide you with good advice due to the simple fact that I have not seen your home, the foundation, or the tree in question.
Therefore, you will need to rely on the expert advice of a certified arborist who is licensed and bonded in your home state of Wisconsin.
Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance, however, there are some questions that simply cannot be answered via this forum -- your's happens to be one of them.
