Charles Buky

ABOUT THE TEAM

With over 50 years of combined expertise and a legacy rooted in excellence, The Buky Group – Coastal Residences has earned its reputation as the name to know in coastal Florida real estate. As the #1 team in Manatee and Sarasota Counties with more than $100 million in annual sales, we bring unmatched market knowledge, trusted experience, and a deep local perspective to every transaction.

Founded by Gabe Buky, whose architectural background and visionary approach helped shape the Longboat Key and Anna Maria Island markets, the group continues to build on his legacy of professionalism, integrity, and genuine care for clients. His deep understanding of design and development—paired with decades of local insight—laid the groundwork for what has become one of the most respected real estate teams in Florida’s Gulf Coast region.

Today, under Charles Buky’s leadership, the team combines the analytical precision of his finance background with an unwavering commitment to service and community. From his early career on Wall Street to his ongoing involvement with the Anna Maria Community Center and Sarasota Ballet, Charles brings both business acumen and heart to the team’s work.

We live local and know local—whether it’s Anna Maria Island, Longboat Key, or Sarasota’s vibrant mainland communities. Our clients rely on us as true advisors: strategic in approach, calm under pressure, and committed to results that feel right. From beachfront estates to downtown condos, we help you navigate every step with confidence and clarity.

The Buky Group isn’t just about selling homes—it’s about honoring a tradition of excellence, building lasting relationships, and delivering the exceptional coastal lifestyle our clients seek.
