About Ben

Ben August brings 18 years of real estate expertise to Far North Queensland. Known for clear communication and attention to detail, Ben has built lasting relationships throughout Cairns and surrounds. His consultative approach and deep market knowledge help clients make well-informed property decisions. As Principal of August Estate Agents, he leads a boutique agency focused on personalised service and exceptional results. Review from a recent client - May 2025 Above and Beyond – 5 Stars! From day one, Ben and the team impressed us with their deep knowledge of the Redlynch market, their can-do attitude, and a clear strategy that just works. Everything ran like clockwork – smooth, professional, and always well-communicated. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Without needing to be asked, they jumped in to help with cleaning, garden work, and small maintenance jobs to make sure the home was looking its best. It’s rare to come across a team so hands-on and genuinely committed. We were under contract within five days of the first open home – and at a price that exceeded our expectations. Even after going under contract, they kept assisting with trades, minor fixes, and contract negotiations. A huge thank you to Ben, Ben H, and Jane from Team August – they made what could’ve been a stressful process feel easy. We couldn’t be happier. Natalie Maharaj - 105 Gamburra Dr Review from a recent client - Feb 2024 Nothing Short of Excellent! Nothing was too much trouble for this young team. With knowledge and professionalism beyond their years, we were ushered through the process of buying AND selling another property at the same time, with ease and confidence. Communication and consideration were key with no stone left unturned. A challenging time to sell during a cyclone and only a few days before Christmas, but that did not deter this enthusiastic trio. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Ben August to anyone wanting to buy or sell. After selling eight properties in the area over a period of thirty years we are delighted the sometimes shady business of Real Estate is being brought up into the ranks of other trusted professionals by such honest, open and reliable Realters.

Ben and his team at August Real Estate are phenomenal.

I think their expert understanding and capability is the result of combining real experience across all different market conditions with a solid, tried-and-tested process. He provided clear guidance and leveraged an extensive network of trusted contacts (brokers & tradesmen) to keep my home sale on track. The team is transparent, reassuring, and answered every question sharply. I will absolutely recommend him to anyone in need of an agent.

Communication was excellent throughout the entire process

We had a fantastic experience working with our real estate team from start to finish. Their knowledge of the market was outstanding, and they really understood what buyers are looking for, which made a huge difference in how our home was presented and sold. Communication was excellent throughout the entire process — we were always kept informed, and any questions we had were answered quickly and clearly. They made what can be a stressful experience feel smooth and well-managed.
