Joe Harris and Charles Totonis did an outstanding job selling our brand new Stock Home in Wildblue, Lakewood Ranch. They are by far the BEST of the Best ! We had a realtor before from another luxury home realtor networks in the area and she did a poor job. despite more than 40 showing in 8 months she was unable to convince anybody to buy that beautiful brand new home on one of the prime lots. Joe and Charles did that in a heartbeat. They gave sound advice, have winning personalities, they have great experience as realtors and everything they said and done was 100 % correct, true and honest. Just great.
Charles Totonis is one of the very BEST Realtors I have worked with. I have bought and sold several properties over the past 8 years. Charles assisted me with the sale of my home and the purchase of a new home. Both transactions were done quickly, professionally and with integrity! My home was under contract in 3 days thanks to Charles diligence! Charles helped me find my new home quickly and negotiated an excellent price ! I highly recommend Charles Totonis as a Top Realtor.
We have bought and sold several homes. Charles was exceptional. He provided outstanding service. Charles was prompt returning phone calls, emails, and texts. A professional with superb organizational skills. His slogan "I sell more because I do more" is true! Genuine interest in the wellbeing of his clients. Our River Club home sold in two days thanks to his excellent marketing strategy. The photographer did a wonderful job showcasing the home. We highly recommend Charles. Thanks so much Charles! We appreciate you! Wishing you good health and continued success. We will miss you.
Charles is very friendly, polite and gets the job done fast! He was an absolute pleasure to work with. There was never a time we felt he wasnt working hard to sell our home. With frequent calls and emails, we always knew the status of our listing. We highly recommend him!
Charles was referred to me by a friend of my daughter who lives in the area. Charles was very professional from my first email contact with him. When we were able to drive down to look at homes, Charles was ready and prepared to show us several homes during a two day period. He was prepared with booklets containing detailed information on the homes we would be seeing. That was so helpful as it's easy to get overwhelmed, especially when you are looking at homes in an area that you aren't familiar with.Our communication and relationship with Charles continued for a couple of weeks until he found us our new home. During the process, Charles was prompt in responding to our many requests and questions. He was kind and patient, always wanting to make sure he was meeting our needs. After we found our home, Charles kicked it into high gear as we were wanting a quick closing. He moved the process along so quickly, making sure different steps were completed early so that there was time for any remediation needed. His knowledge, professionalism, negotiation skills and responsiveness were extremely impressive.We closed on our home without issue thanks to Charles. We will certainly recommend Charles to anyone we know looking for a home in the area...he is simply the best!
Charles is the consummate professional. He knows what is necessary to market a home and gives 100% when he is working for you. He is friendly and down to earth and keeps up daily with traffic and pricing in the neighborhood. I would definitely work with him again.
Charles did a superb job. From the day we signed until the house was sold he kept us advised of what was transpiring and did an excellent job of getting the house sold. I have no doubt that we got it sold as quickly as we did and at close to asking price as we did because of his efforts
Charles was so professional and helped us sell our home and buy another! He is very knowledgeable, attentive, and efficient. We were very happy with the whole experience.

Professional Realtor Charles Totonis is the consummate real estate professional. With a well-polished business ethic of aEURoeI sell more because I do moreaEUR?, he is right on point and well founded on successful results. When we decided to list our home, we researched the results of area realtors and Charles Totonis clearly stood out as a successful results closer of aEUR~Getting It Done in our neighborhood and price point. A look around the neighborhood before we listed, and during the time our home was on the market before closing our sale, it was clear that the homes that were actually selling were those listed by Charles. With a very professional, knowledgeable demeanor, Charles provided a very well-researched marketing analysis and plan for our home, a Home Staging Designer to advise how best to prepare and stage our home for a successful sale, and he utilized the skills of a very professional photographer whose deliverables were turned into professional photographs, video, marketing brochures and a website that was polished and showcased our home with its best features. Pricing was established aEUR~realistically for sale based on area home comparables and what Charles knew from experience would achieve success. Charles showcased our home in professional area magazines and beyond, and in a significantly large number of online showcases domestically and internationally to reach the widest possible home buyer clientele. All appointments were scheduled and advised in advance online, status on marketing activities and results were advised to us weekly. Potential buyer feedback was always advised back to us promptly for review so that Charles and ourselves could adjust the marketing strategy to buyer expectations and feedback provided. Charles was always available to provide answers to Sellers and Buyers questions, and positively find a resolution to any concerns that may arise. At the end of the journey, our home successfully sold within a very reasonable period of time and we were able to move forward to our next adventure in life. Successful results speak for themselves. If as a Seller you are looking to successfully market your home for sale, we highly recommend Charles Totonis to get your initiative over the goal line. If you are a Buyer looking for a home, Charles has a great network to work with to help you find the home of your dreams!Best Wishes on your next Success Charles!RLB & MBB
We normally do not rate anyone five stars across the board but when that is the case, it is easy and the right thing to do!!! Charles is truly a professional in his field. We had a nice home in a nice neighborhood and when we tried to sell originally with another realtor, we never even received an offer!!! After reevaluating the market and realizing who was selling and who wasn't, we contracted Charles and he sold our house in 24 days!!!! He came in with a plan, in writing, and explained how everything would work and who would do what. He fully explained current market conditions, pricing strategies and most importantly, staging and promoting the property. He was with us all the way through the process and became essentially a confidant and business partner with as much stake in the success of the transaction as we did! He did such a phenomenal job selling our home, we asked him to find us another one, which he did!!! We closed both deals on the same day!!!!!!Buying and selling real estate is a traumatic, life changing event and we hope we don't have to do it again anytime soon. But, if we do, the first call will be to Charles Totonis!!!!
Charles is the best realtor in the area by a large margin. Its not even close. He got the best pictures, did the most marketing, brought qualified buyers, and worked the hardest. Dont look anywhere else!
We had a wonderful experience with Charles, he brings a lot of energy and knowledge to the transaction. He is extremely responsive to any and all questions and embraces technology for effective and clear communication.
Charles has great knowledge and experience in the Florida real estate market. He delivered a no pressure sales approach, unique in our past experience(s) selling homes, and conducted himself professionally throughout the entire listing and sales process. I would highly recommend Charles with listing, selling or as a buyers agent as he truly has a finger on the "pulse" of the Florida real estate market.
When it was time to list our home, we thought carefully about the agent we wanted to work with. It was a quick decision to call Charles and list with him. He knows the market and guided us down the right path- his evaluation was thorough and on target, his staging of our home was so beneficial, and his involvement the entire time was 110%. We sold in 25 days at FULL Price! He is a fantastic agent and we highly recommend him!
Charles was great throughout the entire process. His insight of the market and suggestions on how to present the house were invaluable.The closing, for which Florida Title & Guarantee was responsible, was a disaster.Robert & Cheryl Keyes
Charles was the first person we thought of when we needed to sell our house. He sold it. I highly recommend his services above anyone else. There are many reasons that make him superior to other realtors. First of all, he is not afraid to do the actual work to get your home sold. He doesn't just list it and hope someone else finds it. He has been around this area for long enough to really know the neighborhoods and knows how to price the home. He uses the best photographers. He brought a professional stager to our home to help us stage it. He uses the finest print material. He was not afraid to hold open houses and advertises them in many places, using the best photos. Every market and each time of year is different, but I felt he did the right things at the right time. He was very detailed oriented, and wanted to make sure everything was done right, up to the closing documentation. He responds immediately to questions using whatever method you prefer (we used text primarily, but also email and phone). I could not be happier with his services and recommend him to friends.
Charles was most helpful when we were considering trading down. When ill-health meant we had to go back to the UK, he was our first port of call to sell our house in River Club.He was always professional and guided us through the process. His response to emails was almost always instant. While another agent introduced the Buyer, we still relied upon Charles to finalise the sale.Cannot recommend him too highly and have already advised others to approach him when it comes to selling their houses.
Charles was great to work with. Very knowledgeable about the area, worked very hard to put a list of homes together so to not waste our time when in town shopping, and very passionate about his work. Charles is our go to guy for references of people in the area as he seems to know everyone in town! With all the craziness involved in buying a home, Charles kept us very organized, especially after the offer was made! It's nearly impossible to follow all of the deadlines but Charles kept us on schedule! I highly recommend Charles Totonis!
Charles is an excellent real estate professional. Charles helped us purchase our home. He guided us through our purchase and provided the needed advise and counsel. He presents the questions that a buyer needs answer as they enter into a purchase transaction. His follow up and thoroughness is outstanding. We had a great experience.
Charles Totonis and Beth Barnett were very knowledgeable and tireless in the pursuit of the sale of our home. They made themselves available to answer all questions and worked to accommodate our needs and time frame. The pictures their photographer took and the listed price combined to give us a very satisfactory outcome.We would sincerely recommend Charles and Beth to any who are looking to buy or sell a home. They deserve their reputation as the best realty company in Lakewood Ranch!
Charles is the best real estate person I have ever dealt with in buying a home. He was attentive and always available to answer questions. He sold our home within a few days and found us our new home within a week. He is friendly and pleasant and always has a smile when he greets you.
We sold our home in 4 days as a direct result of the expertise of Charles Totonis. He has extensive knowledge of the area and was able to provide excellent information and guidance. We selected Charles because our research showed he gets results. He is a true professional and a genuinely nice person. His listing of our home was beautifully done and in great detail. The professional photographs were remarkable. Charles was always there for us through the entire process and we could not have had a better experience. We highly recommend him to everyone we know.
Mr. Totonis sought my input before setting the asking price. As a result of his efforts, the house sold in four days. He was in constant communication with me throughout the whole process and even went the extra mile by picking up some items I left inadvertently at the old house. I would use him and his associate Beth Barnett again.
Charles was the broker for the seller. We were the buyers. We have bought and sold a number of homes over the years. Charles was far and away the best realtor we have ever worked with. He is honest, thorough, responsive, and meticulous in his attention to detail. He worked as hard for us as he did his clients the sellers. If you are in need of an exceptional realtor Charles is that guy!
We contacted Charles' office on Father's Day weekend and, over the next two weekends, he (1) listened to what we wished to buy; (2) showed us thef Lakewood Ranch lay of the land (including club membership facilities); (3) showed us specific neighborhoods and homes that met our criteria; and (4) alerted us promptly when another home - that we ultimately purchased - came on the market. He is VERY knowledgeable about the Lakewood Ranch community and his follow-up throughout the entire process to closing COULD NOT BE BEAT! We would easily recommend Charles to any potential purchasers and, assume sellers, as they would get the same extraordinary level of service that we did.
