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.

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.

Great Experience in Sale

This was the first time that we sold a house as this was our first home and and Ben and his team were fantastic to deal with. From start to finish Ben was honest, upfront and gave the best advice to ensure a smooth and hassle free sale. No matter where we were in the process of sale, we were kept informed of the whole process, where things were at and gave us the best advice on on how to proceed. I will always reach out to Ben and his team for all future real estate sales in the future. Thank you Ben and Team August for everything!

Ben & Team August - are magic.

Ben & Team August - are magic.

From when we decided to sell our home in Redlynch Valley to the time the funds went into our bank account, Ben & Team August were with us all the way and gave us a package that worked. The advice on timing and pricing was spot on. The help, support, and organisation of getting our home into tip-top condition was a result of teamwork from all the team, including us. The staging of the home was brilliant, giving fantastic quality photos and videos, allowing for the best possible marketing. The team was asked to and arranged all our legal dealings and regulations. After the sale was completed and the deal was done, the team was still there, helpful and supporting in any questions and queries we had for them. We were very pleased to get top dollar for our home as a direct result of Ben & Team August. Steve Wisbey - Debbie Wild.
