Chris Blackwell

Meet Chris

I was born & raised in South Miami-Dade and have been a part of the area's transformation over the last 20 years. I graduated from Florida State University in 2008, where I obtained my Bachelors of Science Degree. I remained in Tallahassee for almost 3 years afterwards, selling new homes for the area's top builders. I was awarded Rookie of the Year in 2009, with over 4 million dollars in closed transactions. In early 2011, my enthusiasm for selling real estate in my hometown combined with the opportunity to give back to the area brought me back home. If you're looking for a motivated Realtor who is driven and experienced, allow me to assist with your real estate needs.

What my customers are saying...

Chris Blackwell is a top notch realtor at Keys Gate Realty and is at the pinnacle of his game in the South Dade area. Based on our experience with Chris, he clearly has his finger on the pulse of all phases of the local real estate market. After signing up with him to rent out our property for the first time one recent Friday evening, he brought us an interested party the very next afternoon, and our deal was sealed in stone the following day…on his scheduled day off. Dedication is key when looking for an agent in the current market and locale, and Chris visibly strived to make things happen during the entire process, from inception to conclusion. Most importantly, Chris timely returns all calls and texts, while simultaneously making you feel that you are his only client whenever he is with you. He never keeps you waiting or hanging, and is consistently upbeat and professional. We highly recommend Chris, whether you are in the rental market, or if you are in the market for either a purchase or a sale. He knows just how to connect all the dots in any situation, and his people skills are superb. Our family looks forward to a long and mutually rewarding relationship with Chris! -Jerry and Karen Ryan

For all your real estate needs, look no further. Chris applies a personal touch to his profession. His pride in his work is clearly reflected in his attitude. Dealing with him was a pleasure. –Rita Agarwal

Chris was a top notch realtor. I was a first time buyer and he guided me through the entire process seamlessly. I would have been lost without him. He helped me negotiate a great deal and was pretty much available 24/7 for my many, many questions. If he were still in Tallahassee, I'd recommend him to everyone I know... but now that he is in South Florida, I'll have to recommend him to people I don't know. -Amity Gay

He is also very honest and will always work for what is best for his customer.

Working with Chris to make his customers "dream come true", has been a dream in itself.
