A Special Journey from Softball Fields to Sold Signs

Another Successful Sale: A Special Journey from Softball Fields to Sold Signs

At Gray Fox Realty, every home sale has a story—and this one is extra special. Years ago, Mike and Jake crossed paths while coaching their daughters on the softball fields of Franklin. Later, they served together on the board for the Girls Softball of Franklin, building a lasting friendship rooted in community and shared experiences. So when it came time for Jake and Aida to take the next big step in life—moving closer to their family in Arizona—they knew exactly who to call: Mike  and the team at Gray Fox Realty.

The home was a dream to bring to market. Having recently undergone a thoughtful remodel, it was already in pristine, staged-like condition. This made the pre-marketing phase incredibly smooth—no major prep work needed. Gray Fox Realty focused on what we do best: launching a professional marketing campaign across the local MLS and broader online networks to make sure this beautiful Rogersshire home got the attention it deserved.

The only challenge? A steep driveway leading into the garage. While it took a bit of time to find the right buyer who could see past that detail, we remained confident—and it paid off. After a few showings and thoughtful conversations, we connected with a buyer who truly appreciated everything else the home had to offer.

Negotiations were strategic but collaborative. We worked closely with the buyer’s agent—who was fantastic throughout the process—to line up a closing date that matched nearly perfectly with the sellers’ timeline for their new home construction in Arizona. The inspection phase went surprisingly smoothly, especially for a home of this age, and from there, the rest of the closing process was a breeze.

At Gray Fox Realty, this wasn’t just another transaction—it was the continuation of a relationship that started years ago on the ballfields. Helping these friends transition into their next chapter, while making sure the process was smooth and rewarding, is exactly why we do what we do.

We couldn’t be happier for our sellers as they start this exciting new chapter closer to family, and we are grateful for the trust they placed in us once again.

If you’re considering a move—whether across town or across the country—we’d love to be part of your story too.
