About Charles
Licensed Real Estate Agent, Licensed Stock and Station Agent and Licensed Business Agent in the ACT. After commencing my real estate career in 1991 I have helped thousands along their journey to the next chapter in their lives. Being a country boy and growing up on a farm its naturally ingrained into you to lend a helping hand to the people around you. Being a real estate agent is more than just listing and selling homes, and I often find that home owners are time poor or in need of assistance in planning their next move and getting the home ready for sale. Sometimes its just a bit of advice and tips on presentation, and at other times its organizing quotes from tradespeople, cleaners and service providers. I have loved living in the ACT since 2003 and enjoy the vibrant arts scene, open spaces and friendly lifestyle. A bike ride around Lake Burley Griffin or one of the many cycling tracks is a great way to unwind and exercise, with a stop at one of the many fantastic cafes or restaurants! And it is an easy commute to Sydney for a show or weekend away and the Snowy Mountains are an easy Friday afternoon drive. And I love nothing better than to jump on my motor bike and head down the coast for a swim. (When I get the chance) The things that determine the end result when selling, are careful planning, great marketing targeting the most suitable demographic, your choice of method of sale, the negotiating skills and experience of your agent. As the old saying goes you cant sell a secret, a sensible and broad marketing campaign will ensure the whole of the current buyer pool finds your property. And having said that I understand that sometimes due to personal circumstances or preferences a discreet or off market sale is the right choice, with our Canberra wide network you can tap into our data base of pre-qualified buyers. Having bought and sold a few times myself I understand the potential pressures that can build and my core philosophy is to make the process a smooth and stress less one through great communication keeping you well informed. If you want an agent that will give you all the time in the world, has your best interests at heart, takes on board your needs and preferences, go that extra mile and has a proven track record, then give me a call for a no obligation chat. 0409 136 867 Cheers Charlie

Extremely happy with the expertise and service provided

Charles (Charlie) was professional, friendly and down to earth. He provided clear and precise advice and recommendations regarding strategy and the whole selling experience. Excellent communication was maintained throughout the process and Charlie kept us fully informed. We were particularly grateful for his recommendations and assistance in arranging the relevant trades (cleaning, gardening and maintenance) who all did a marvellous job to help prepare the house for sale. Auction day was well managed with the additional support provided by the Luton’s team being professional and welcoming. Overall we were extremely happy with the expertise and service provided.

Charles arranged sale of my property in Cook ACT from the initial consultation to the ultimate sale

I'm 83 years of age, single, and was living alone in an apartment where I had been for over 25 years. I met Charles in a chain encounter perhaps 6 or 8 years ago. No mention was made of a sale except that he indicated that he was always available if I needed him. He may have contacted me every 6 months or so without ever mention of a sale. Later in 2020 it was decided that I was going to have to move to smaller quarters in Merimbula. I arranged for Charles to come and see me at home one Saturday afternoon and put to him that I wanted to negotiate the sale of my house, minimum fuss, all questions asked and details settled there and then, I sign the preliminary contract, settle the date of the auction and go to it. This indeed happened and despite that I had a spell in hospital all was done with no fuss. Charles organised all of the secondary suppliers and had the preparations done on time. He supervised all of the "open house" gatherings personally and made sure that no person was left without an answer. His expectation was $590,000 but he was confident of $650. Clearly he had cultivated the right potential buyers because he ha 3 buyers arguing the last individual dollar. The auction sale price was $722,000
