**Real Estate Win: Off-Market Investment in Fieldstone Farms**

At Gray Fox Realty, we love helping our clients make smart real estate moves. This recent transaction is a perfect example of a well-executed investment strategy!

### **The Opportunity**

Our buyers had just secured a contract on their townhome and were ready to find their next investment property. However, with nothing on the market that fit their needs, we decided to take a creative approach. Rather than waiting for the perfect listing to pop up, we searched through expired listings to find properties that met their criteria. 

After reaching out to the owners of one such property, located in the sought-after **Fieldstone Farms** community, we were able to negotiate an **off-market deal** that ticked all the boxes. This allowed our clients to stay ahead of the competition and get into a great home in a desirable location.

### **Maximizing Investment with a 1031 Exchange**

But the smart decisions didn’t stop there! Our buyers took advantage of a **1031 exchange**, which allowed them to defer capital gains taxes by reinvesting the proceeds from their townhome sale into this new property. This powerful investment tool helps investors keep more money working for them, building long-term wealth through real estate.  

If you’re not familiar with the 1031 exchange, it’s a section of the tax code that allows real estate investors to swap one property for another without immediately paying capital gains taxes. It’s an excellent way to grow a real estate portfolio while keeping tax burdens low. 

### **The Perfect Location**

This new property is in the established and charming **Fieldstone Farms** community, just a few minutes from **Downtown Franklin** and close to **Green Hills**. Not only is it in a fantastic location, but the neighborhood is also known for its appeal to both families and investors. It’s the perfect balance of convenience, charm, and potential for long-term value.

### **Congratulations to Our Buyers!**

We couldn’t be happier for our clients and their strategic, well-timed purchase. Their ability to think outside the box and seize an off-market opportunity, combined with smart tax planning through a 1031 exchange, made this a winning real estate investment. 

If you’ve been considering growing your real estate portfolio or are curious about how a 1031 exchange works, we’d love to chat! At Gray Fox Realty, we specialize in helping our clients make the most of their investments.
