Our Nashville area home is on the MARKET!

Shameless plug.

When I bought this place they had just opened up a new lower loop (840) below Nashville. I sold a biz at age 40 that I started from my garage at age 29. I “checked out”. Yep, no more suits and ties, no more dealing with all the employees, customers, etc. I had an offer and I took it.

We iived in the “we don’t drink our beer Muffy we sip it” town of Brentwood (S of Nash). I was not buying my kid(s) a $50K BMW for their 16th bday. like the rest…so it was “back to the country” for our family of five.

We transformed a kind of neglected property that sat empty for two years into a paradise. I worked my can off around here for the past 6 years or so. Oh I work full time here. Now it’s time for the payoff.

@BanjoBen here is my place that I was talking about. It went up on Zillow. Maybe you could get Billy Strings to look at it because I don’t know his user name. Same goes for Shania! ha ha.

60K people moved between me and town in six years - now my area is the “wealthy country estate” area 2 miles out beyond the $700K/home “burgs”…and man are those folks with money running from the big cities due to the virus and riots. I will gladly step aside and let someone write me a check for the past 7 years of work.

You will be hard pressed to find a home with features and land like this in the entire Nash region. It’s a nice country home - If developers get it they will probably tear it down and put up $25 million homes. No joke, at the “country club” down the road 4 miles (into the country) they are selling 1/4 acre lots for $1.2 mil. Absolutely crazy. I’m probably getting out too early…but it sure is getting crowded again. It’s time to go.

Hi @BanjoBen I gotta ask, after the work and investment you’ve put in to your home in recent years what has prompted you to move back to Texas ?

We don’t know what we’re gonna do yet, my friend. We are closing on a farm in Texas this next week. It was an offer I couldn’t turn down–my cousin’s farm that borders my mom’s place. Land prices are going through the roof and I had to take this opportunity if I was gonna buy down there.

We don’t have plans to leave TN just yet, but the ultimate reason is that all of our family lives within 120 miles of each other in east Texas so we want to be back there. With camps growing in popularity in Tennessee, it doesn’t make sense to sell this place unless I have to. Who knows what the Lord has planned for us to do?
