Mike Battistelli spent early years in the New York City music and entertainment industry, enjoying a successful career as Musical Director and Conductor on Broadway and at Radio City Music Hall. That background in performance, precision, and storytelling shapes how he approaches real estate — with preparation, presence, and a deep respect for the emotional significance of every transaction.

His wife Kate is a bestselling author, speaker, and former Broadway actress who co-starred opposite Yul Brynner in "The King and I" for more than 1,000 performances. Their daughter Francesca is a GRAMMY® and DOVE® Award-winning singer/songwriter and Christian recording artist — and a mother to their seven grandchildren.

This is a family built on craft, commitment, and community. Those values carry directly into every client relationship Mike builds in Franklin and across Middle Tennessee.
