The Tennessee Titans
& the GM: Mike Reinfeldt
In early February 2007 I received a request for information about the Nashville area real estate via my www.NashvillesMLS.com site and the potential buyers name was Susan Reinfeldt the wife of Mike Reinfeldt. At that time I had no idea that this was about to become one of my most high profile clients to date. Mike Reindeldt was in the final stages of interviewing for the General Manager position at the Titans organization.
New GM Moves To Nashville
Mike, at the time, was the Vice President of football operations at the Seattle Seahawks but had a long history with the Oilers and the owner Bud Adams. Mike was the front runner for the job and so it was time to for him and his family to start exploring the housing market in Nashville.
Once the Reinfeldts registered on the site for additional information, I called and talked to Mike's wife Susan Reindeldt and she told me about the possibility of the move if Mike got the job. This started the process of narrowing down the search area based on price, schools, access to the Titans HQ in addition to a number of other factors.
New GM finds a home with Gary Ashton as his Realtor
Once we had the area narrowed down, both Mike and Susan were using the site to find suitable homes, which I would then preview and take additional photographs for them to get a "virtual pictorial" tour of the homes.
After Mike had officially accepted the job, he moved down to Nashville and lived in temporary accomodation while taking on the task of taking over the responsibilities of the GM position. In addition Mike was gearing up for the draft and trying to find time to preview areas and subdivisions for Susan and the family before they all made a trip down from Seattle.
Eventually, the Reindeldt family made a decision about the school and the area where they wanted to live, and once the kids were finished with school in Seattle, the whole family moved to the Nashville area.
"Moving a family cross country is a very stressful event especially when your husband is up to his ears at work and your kids are hectic as they complete their school year. The folks at The Ashton Group made a tremendous effort to put my heart at ease. They worked round the clock to find a home that suited our needs and wishes. I believe Gary has a unique ability to uncover nuances about a family and he then uses this information to find a suitable setting. For this reason and many others the Reinfeldts will use the Ashton Group for all their real estate needs." Susan Reinfeldt January 2008
The 2007-8 NFL Season
As the year has progressed the Titans have had ups and downs with heart breaking final minute and over time losses as well as injuries that severly impacted the team but they stuck together and developed a reputation as having one of the most formidable and respected defenses in the NFL.
Now, as we enter the start of 2008, the Tennessee Titans have made it through to the Superbowl Playoffs.
The Superbowl Playoffs
In the game against San Diego they are seen as the underdogs but as Mike Reinfeldt talked about on his radio show the Oilers were big under dogs and were not expected to win any of their playoff games against supposedly superior teams but they did!
Keep an eye out for the Titans...they may surprise the rest of the country this year..but not the Titans fans in Nashville Tennessee!
