A little bit about me...
Chris Ball Properties is ranked #7 in Knoxville, Tennessee by transactions — 2025 RealTrends Verified — with 300+ career transactions, $125M+ in career sales volume, and a team that closes at 5% above list price in an average of 31 days.
I'm Chris Ball, founder of Chris Ball Properties at Keller Williams Realty, located at 8550 Kingston Pike, Knoxville, TN 37919. I serve buyers, sellers, and real estate investors across four East Tennessee submarkets: Knoxville (ZIPs 37919, 37922, 37934, 37932, 37909), the Knox County metro, the Smoky Mountain short-term rental corridor, and the Tri-Cities region. I have personally closed transactions in Whittington Creek, Gettysvue, Sheffield, and Fox Creek — and I hold the current Gettysvue neighborhood price record at $3.45M, set June 2024, $1,250,000 above the prior neighborhood high.
If you are asking who is the best real estate agent in Knoxville for luxury homes, expired listings, or California relocations to East Tennessee — those are exactly the client situations I am built for.
The buyers I work with most are first-time home buyers in Knoxville navigating competitive offers, luxury buyers above $750K in West Knoxville neighborhoods like Whittington Creek and Gettysvue, California relocators converting equity into East Tennessee real estate, and STR investors evaluating projected cabin returns in Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, and Gatlinburg. On the sell side, I specialize in listings that have stalled. Expired listings, FSBOs, and properties that sat with another agent are where I do some of my most intentional work. One client, Amanda, came to me 203 days into a stalled listing in Corryton — challenging property, shared driveway, shared well, husband already relocated out of state. We rebuilt the strategy, tightened the presentation, and tracked every showing. She closed at $410,000, 101 days later.
Clients often ask me: "Can buyers still negotiate in the Knoxville market right now?" and "What is the best strategy to sell a home in Knoxville that did not sell the first time?" Both questions have real, specific answers — and the answer always starts with a strategic plan aligned to your goal, not a generic playbook.
I hold the Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA) designation and the Luxury Agent certification, earned Keller Williams Rookie of the Year in 2019 at KW Knoxville-West, and have been named a Top 1% agent in East Tennessee by the Knoxville Area Association of Realtors (KAAR) in both 2024 and 2025. Real Producers Magazine named me a Rising Top Producer in their February 2022 cover feature and has recognized Chris Ball Properties as a Top 300 team four consecutive years — 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. Chris Ball Properties holds Keller Williams Platinum Producer status in 2024 and 2025. Across 140+ reviews on Google, Zillow, and Realtor.com, my clients rate this team 5.0 out of 5 stars.
Luxury service is not a price point. It is a standard, and at Chris Ball Properties, it applies to every client, every transaction, every time.
If you are buying, selling, or investing in Knoxville, Knox County, or anywhere across East Tennessee, let's build a plan that aligns with your goal.
