Charlie Vinci

High-End CT Gold Coast Specialist

As a child, my single father supported the two of us with his side hustle, buying and selling heavy equipment. I was fascinated with the process of finding, cleaning up and reselling the equipment, often for more profit than my father would make working all month in his “real job”. 

In my teens, I followed in his footsteps and bought and sold cars, and in my early twenties I did the same with houses. In my late twenties, I started a remodeling business which had me driving around the Gold Coast writing estimates, and learning about the towns and neighborhoods.

What I learned about the neighborhoods eventually became a YouTube Channel. Now with hundreds of videos about the area, it's by far the #1 resource for buyers thinking about moving to the Gold Coast with more than 40,000 unique viewers every quarter (YouTube derived statistics).

While I have been recognised by many magazines, podcasts, and rating agencies in recent years, I’m just a guy who loves helping people buy and sell their homes. For many people, my construction experience helps them make better decisions, whether it be sizing up a home for purchase, or deciding what improvements will give the highest return when selling. 

Today, I am consistently viewing, marketing and negotiating high-end Gold Coast Connecticut real estate, which helps my buyers and sellers put together a winning strategy. The process of buying and selling a home will never be easy, but it’s more successful when you have someone you can trust as your guide.

Some of the reasons that my clients choose me…

• With my decades of experience, I’ll give you guidance and advice that will help you make better decisions.
• I’ll be honest with you about the pros and cons, even when it's not what you want to hear.
• We’ll follow a proven process, designed to avoid many of the problems inherent in a real estate transaction
• You’ll make or save more money with my guidance, than without, and with less effort, stress and frustration because I have the experience of helping thousands of people before you.

If you are thinking about buying or selling, call me...you be the judge.

Here's the article Top Agent wrote about me...

Consumed with a desire to succeed, Charlie Vinci, based in Greenwich, Connecticut, worked his way into the real estate industry after being forced to close a substantial contracting business during the housing market crash in 2008. Reckoned that he would make a fantastic real estate agent by his friends and colleagues, Charlie took the plunge and got his license. Despite being met with unexpected and challenging circumstances throughout his career, he persevered his way to becoming one of the top agents in the area, and today is the lead agent for The Charlie Vinci Team at Compass. In addition, he has earned Homesnap's Top 5% of Realtors in the US.

Though Charlie entered the industry in his early forties, he purchased and remodeled his first investment property when he was only twenty-two. Real estate was an instant passion for Charlie where he exhibited a unique ambition and found a genuine interest in educating himself and others on the market. Today he and his team focus on the Gold Coast area of Connecticut, high-end commutable suburbs of New York, New York. The area is akin to New York's City’s cousin, bustling with luxury shopping, outstanding parks and beaches, highly acclaimed restaurants, and diverse cultures, ultimately making it an incredibly desirable place to live.

What sets Charlie and the team apart from their competition is their informative presence on YouTube. Charlie’s YouTube channel holds the most extensive viewership in Greenwich, as well as the surrounding area. Successfully attracting buyers both domestically and internationally including clients from New York, New Jersey and California, as well as the continents of Asia, Europe and Australia, to name a few. Those YouTube clients eventually make their way over to his website where he and his team have compiled numerous guides on the area, including neighborhood maps, school information, buying advice, seller tips and more. 

Sellers appreciate Charlie’s ability to expose their home to a larger audience of buyers than most agents, with his online presence that attracts buyers locally and afar. He also uses his former experience as a remodeling contractor to show his clients how to prepare their home for the market so they are uniquely positioned to capitalize on buyers who will pay top dollar. As a result of Charlie’s distinct approach, his sellers do considerably better than the market. 

Charlie and his team stay available to former clients for years to come, offering real estate guidance, local area knowledge, and an extensive list of recommended resources.
