Charles Blackney was professional and personable from the beginning. I approached him to sell two properties in completely different demographics. He had a complete understanding of the market and gave sound advice on every step of the way - being realistic and keeping me grounded on the process of both the sale and auction of my properties. Charlie is a very easy person to talk to and a great communicator. He kept in touch, frequently calling to update or check on how I was going with different things. I never had to call him for updates and he always made me feel that he was completely on top of the sometimes intricate details of everything going on. I always felt that Charlie had my best interests in his head and understood my particular situation extremely well. Charlie is a sensitive, friendly, patient and understanding person who I would absolutely recommend to anybody needing an agent. His complete understanding of the market and the way he tailored both campaigns ultimately meant I received the very best price for both properties, that exceeded my expectations. I would happily approach Charlie again should I ever need a real estate agent - he was exactly what I needed.

We engaged Charles to sell our house in north Canberra. From the get-go he was on his game, knew precisely his role, what ours was and helped us assemble the pieces in the project to make it all happen. Charles calmly and methodically project managed us, gave us excellent counsel about preparing our property and kept us informed at every step. With fantastic photography to bring out the best in our property it presented beautifully on the web, attracted lots of inquiries and sold within a week and a very sharp price. We would absolutely recommend Charles to any and everyone.

Charlie was very responsive to my queries/requests making the sale process smooth and stress free.

Charles was a great agent for us. He kept us informed and updated. He negotiated a great price and we have already recommended him to friends and will continue to do so.

We chose Charles to be our agent following an appraisal he did for us a couple of years prior to our decision to sell the house. We found him at that time to be a genuine and caring person who we would trust with our father's investment. We needed to gather a minimum of four quotes due to our position of power of attorney but Charles stood out above the rest, partly because of his competitive fees but mostly because we felt that he had the friendly manner, professionalism and integrity that we were looking for. We were certainly rewarded for our decision. Charles followed a great advertising strategy bringing, what we felt, was a great number of people during the open houses and securing a positive number of bidders. The day of the auction was an emotional time for us and Charles was a great support for us whilst also providing a private and comfortable environment for the bidders and, ultimately, the buyers. We were very satisfied with both the number of registered bidders and the end result. We received well over the reserved price and we left the experience feeling elated and highly satisfied with the result. The auctioneer, Craig was encouraging yet not pushy, which achieved a great result for us. I would not hesitate in recommending Charles Blackney as an agent and I would most certainly choose him again if the situation arose.

Couldn't ask for a better agent. Explained everything clearly and followed up on everything he said he would. Fantastic job.

Charlie had been referred to us by a friend and from our initial meeting itself, he was professional, courteous yet friendly. Being new to the selling process, he made sure that he provided us with sound advice and kept us well informed throughout the sale process. As we were moving interstate, Charlie did everything possible for us to be able to make our move with the least inconvenience. He put in a lot of hard work in securing potential buyers before the auction with several open houses which helped us getting an outstanding result for our property. He always called us regularly to provide us with updates to let us know the progress of the sale procedure and also provided us with weekly reports and buyer feedback. Charlie is an honest and efficient person who has a well planned sales strategy. We would definitely recommend him to anyone who is interested in selling their property.

Working with Charlie was good... communication was good ... we were able to manage expectations and the logistics of selling the house went well. More importantly we felt that Charlie was committed to selling the house for the right price and was able to bring buyers and sellers together. Every one walked away happy.

Charlie Blackney and team assisted us in selling our Aranda property recently. I am happy to recommend Charlie and his associates to anybody considering selling their property. Their market knowledge and commitment to the job ensured a great result for us. It was a pleasure working with the Luton Belconnen team.

My partner and I were really happy working with Charlie negotiating the purchase of our new house. The difficulty for agents is getting the best price they can to fulfill their obligation to their client, while at the same time creating a good experience for the purchaser so that they feel happy about the process and the outcome. We’ve had some negative experiences as buyers in the past but were surprised and pleased that Charlie was open, honest and fair with us though-out the process, while still ensuring he upheld his obligations to the sellers. He was particularly good at explaining his approach and why he thought his approach was fair and reasonable for all parties involved. He’s a rare find in the real-estate game in our minds.
