I love everything about Knoxville. I love being downtown and seeing the gleaming World’s Fair Sunsphere. I love the hustle and bustle of the University of Tennessee’s campus (where I went to school) and the roar of the crowd when the Vols take the field each fall.

I love Knoxville’s charm, its rich history, its gentility, and its traditions.

But if I had to choose one thing about this great city that makes my heart beat faster than anything else, it’d have to be the water. Whether it’s the mighty Tennessee River, which flows through the nucleus of the city, or the peacefulness of Fort Loudon Lake, water lies at my very core and is the thing that gives me the greatest serenity and joy in life.

If I was given my druthers, I’d spend the balance of my days on a boat. Whether I’m with friends and family or just taking some time for myself, boating is where I’m my best self.

Knoxville allows me to connect with what’s most important and what makes me the happiest.

It’s this fire for Knoxville, the peacefulness and contentedness that I’ve found here, that has driven my passion for my job. Real estate allows me to help other people fall in love with this town just like I have.

It allows me to experience Knoxville through the eyes of someone new. Even more, it allows me to help them find their Knoxville, to help them find, for themselves, the magic that lives here.

I’m Blake Rickels. Knoxville is my home, it is my heart. Let me help you make it yours.

    I have used Blake for all of my real estate needs. He is a great person and a trust worthy agent. I like how he does business and I respect his candor. Blake gets the job done and I am ALWAYS happy with the buying and selling of homes. He got my first home under contract within one week and the second home was under contract in a day with a price I was HAPPY with.EVERYONE loves Blake because he is easy going. When choosing a realtor you have to chose someone that people genuinely like and BLAKE is that GUY! He has a great team of agents, too and his wife Cindy also helped out and answered my questions and assisted my movers. They are just both GREAT people and I will always choose Blake as my agent. Always! He is a great person and honestly, has been a friend because I was not in town and he helped out even after closing. Just a great, quality person and human being. I value him ... his time...and his patience!GO TEAM BLAKE!!! THEY ARE # 1!!!!!!!

    I have known Blake for many years, so when it came time for me to purchase my first home, I knew right then I wanted Blake as my realtor. I respect and trusted him in helping us make the right decisions. He listened to both my husband and my needs/wants when we were looking for our home. He is very knowledgeable and knows the market well. He is patient, kind, and honest. He is most definitely someone you want on your side when it comes to buying a house. He gets the job done!! We are now selling and buying this time around. And there was no question about who our realtor would be!!!

    Blake recently help me list and sell my home. He made the process so easy especially during the negotiation and home inspection process. Blake suggested a contractor, Josh Kimsey, to take care of some of the home inspection items and Josh did an outstanding job. Everyone Blake works with or recommends is always top notch. My closing happened to fall on a day that I had to go out of town for a funeral, Blake was able to have the title company make a last minute meeting for me to sign my paperwork before I went out of town and not hold up the closing process. I would highly recommend Blake Rickels to anyone who in the market to sell or buy a home.

    Blake was recommended by a previous neighbor whose house he had sold a few years ago. It didn’t take long for my wife and I to realize why he had come so highly recommended. Blake quickly provided great feedback on preparation for selling our home. He was a great resource for anything that came up during the process and was always available. Blake is a fantastic realtor and an even better person!

    Blake sold 2 lots for us in our 4 lot subdivision ( Dec2019 and Feb 2020. He was straight forward with communication, spot on with pricing , and it says a lot that the buyers didn’t hire outside realtors after interacting with him . We will rehire Blake when we get around to selling another lot .

    Just let Blake close the deal. It was easy, fast, and seamless. If you don't go with this group I would love to know why. It was exactly how I would have hoped a real estate transaction would have transpired. GREAT JOB!!!

    We've worked with Blake in the past and continue to work with him currently. He's a wealth of information and very resourceful, having helped us buy, sell, and, now, even helping with our upcoming build. He is always upbeat and responsive and unaffected by our crazy questions and requests. I rarely recommend anyone for anything but, without hesitation, recommend Blake Rickels for any and all of your real estate needs.

    Blake Rickels has exceeded my expectations twice. First as my listing agent six years ago. He sold my home for full asking price in THREE days in my subdivision that had not sold any homes in the recent past. AND I was out of state and he handled everything for me. Seamlessly. Now I’ve moved back to Knoxville and needed to purchase a home quickly in this difficult market. He found the perfect place and negotiated for me to buy it (with many competing offers) in FIVE days. He also got a closing in FOURTEEN days. Again, miraculous in this market. He has even provided references for excellent contractors to remodel the home in a reasonable timeframe. The most amazing thing about Blake is that he cares. He truly cares. It doesn’t matter to him if you are a buyer or seller or if you are a $200,00 buyer or a million dollar buyer. You are treated exactly the same. I’m so grateful for him. I believe he has realtor superpowers and the heart of a giant. You cannot go wrong with Blake Rickels.
