It’s a slam dunk for Ceci Amrhein-Gallasch.

The Joyner Fine Properties agent has sold the former home of Shaka and Maya Smart after several months on the market.

The Colonial Revival-style Fan District home at 2701 Park Ave. sold off market to Mark J. and Mary Lou Rickey, according to a deed filed in Richmond Circuit Court.

The 2½-story, 15-room house sold for $1.26 million, below its initial asking price of $1.49 million. The property was listed in mid-June last year but was taken off market in late November.

Amrhein-Gallasch did not return messages seeking comment. The sale was first reported by the Times-Dispatch.

The house was put on the market following the Smarts’ move to Texas, where Shaka Smart accepted the top men’s coaching job at the University of Texas after six years as VCU’s men’s basketball coach.
