“Strategic, financially grounded, and deeply invested in every client’s outcome.”

Charles Buky brings a rare combination of financial expertise and real estate acumen to the Gulf Coast market. With a background rooted in Wall Street and complex financial transactions, Charles understands how to structure deals, navigate 1031 exchanges, and protect clients’ wealth at every stage of the transaction.

He also brings a builder’s eye to every deal. Having built homes on the island himself and maintained close relationships with the area’s top luxury builders, he offers clients a rare depth of insight into new construction and quality of build. That perspective, paired with his financial background, sets the strategic direction for one of the top-producing teams in Manatee and Sarasota Counties. His approach is measured, data-driven, and always centered on his clients’ long-term interests, not just the immediate transaction.

Charles and his family live on the water, and that connection to the gulf coast lifestyle runs through everything he does professionally. Whether it’s time on the boat, catching a baseball game, or giving back to the community he loves, Charles is as invested in this place as anyone, and that shows up in how he works for his clients. Whether you are selling a luxury coastal property, completing a tax-advantaged exchange, or investing in Anna Maria Island real estate, Charles brings the depth of knowledge and steady counsel that high-stakes decisions demand.
