Another successful sale and satisfied customers! Charles "Charlie" Duke, Realtor (Cell) 904-510-2036

From my sellers!
"Charlie's representation of our property, and the lengths he want to to support us, was outstanding. We weren't local during the sale, and Charlie handled lots of things for us that otherwise we would have had to handle ourselves. This is the second property sale that Charlie has handled for us, and when we decide to head back to Amelia we'll be working with Charlie again but this time as buyers! " Don and Jeanine C
