Our story

Built to serve.
Built to last.

David Knapp founded StillWaters Realty Group at Keller Williams Auburn-Opelika with a straightforward purpose: to build something that lasts — for his family, his clients, and his community. In four years, that vision has translated into 145+ closed transactions and over $40+ million in career volume.

What you don’t do is hand off one of the biggest financial decisions of your life to someone who treats it like a routine transaction. David’s background as an art major shapes how every listing goes to market — accurate descriptions, current photography, and a presentation that reflects the real property.

Communication is the other half. David carries the same precision into every negotiation and every contract — reading carefully, writing clearly, working to find the outcome where all parties walk away glad they showed up.

The short answer is: this team operates the way David would want to be treated as a client — because he is one. He invests in the same markets he serves, so the advice is never hypothetical.

What makes us different

Three things we do at a high level. Every time.

  1. Presentation

    Every listing goes to market with accurate, current photography and descriptions that genuinely reflect the property. Sellers who’ve been burned by lazy marketing know the difference the moment they see it.

  2. Negotiation

    There are a lot of moving parts from contract to close. David negotiates with the precision of someone who reads every line — working toward outcomes where all parties walk away satisfied.

  3. Communication

    Ask them about their systems. Make sure they know what they’re talking about. Make sure you feel comfortable with them. That’s the standard David holds himself to with every client, every week.

A real transaction

Four offers. Well above list price. Double closing. Everyone walked away happy.

At an open house in Fort Mitchell, David handed flyers to a few neighbors — because he always likes to get to know the neighborhood. One neighbor mentioned he’d be PCSing in about six months. David stayed in touch. When they were ready to move, they listened to strategy even though the house wasn’t in tip-top shape. Coming soon campaign, priced under market value, presented right — four offers came in, three others walked away because they didn’t want to compete. The four that showed up pushed the sale well above list price. David got his clients into a new home in Opelika with a double closing. There are a lot of moving parts. When clients are willing to work the strategy all the way through, that’s when the results show up.

  • Above list price
  • Double closing
  • Clients win on both sides
