Chuck was fantastic to work with! From attending our cottage inspection to connecting us with an awesome mortgage broker we needed to get the job done, he was there every step of the way to support us!

Working with Chuck was a pleasure. He really pulled out all the stops to make sure we could put the deal together. He personally made sure all went smoothly for possession day. Would definitely work with Chuck again either buying or selling.

- Danielle Stewart

Karen and I have had several experiences with Chuck both buying and selling properties. He is always willing to give advice if asked, and always willing to be patient with us while we are deciding how to proceed. He has gone that extra mile with helping us in any way. This has also included offering to help us get our home ready to sell. We can not be more satisfied with his service and that is why we have had him help us with several real estate transactions. We wholeheartedly recommend him to potential buyers and sellers in our surrounding area.

- John & Karen Neary

I had the pleasure of working with Chuck to find a great starter home and enter the market. After our initial discussion it didn’t take Chuck long to find something perfect for me. He’s motivated, easy to work with, and a highly knowledgeable agent. In addition to finding a buyer or showing you a property, he provides great advice based on your desires. Highly recommended!

- Kevin Louch

Chuck helped us purchase a cottage property in 2020. My husband and I are extremely particular people. We provided Chuck had a detailed list of our exact wants, needs etc in a property to ensure we didn't waste our time looking a properties that didn't meet our needs. Chuck helped us secure the perfect property for us that met all the criteria and was a pleasure to deal with. He even offered months later to help us pick up a peddle boat with his trailer when I asked him for a recommendation for someone who could assist us. He is supportive throughout the sales process and continues to provide service after the fact. He lives and works in the community and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chuck to anyone needing his services.

- Jennifer Guberney

Super nice guy. No hard-selling and easy to like! As my husband would say, Chuck passes the beer & BBQ test! He also crawled around under the cottages along side my husband during our appointments. Chuck is knowledgable, and put us at ease immediately. We bought the second cottage property Chuck showed us. He is calm with a sense of urgency. Timely communication when you’re anxiously awaiting news of an offer! Our experience from start to finish was great!
