Charles Burnett, CCIM is the Principal of Sound Property Group, a Puget Sound real estate team specializing in multifamily and investment properties.
With more than two decades of experience, Charles has built his career around helping multifamily property owners maximize the value of their investments. From 2015 through 2025, Charles ranked #1 in Washington State for the most multifamily properties sold, giving him an exceptional depth of experience in the valuation, marketing, negotiation, and sale of multifamily real estate.
Charles works with property owners throughout the greater Puget Sound region, with particular expertise in duplexes, triplexes, fourplexes, apartment buildings, and other income-producing properties. His approach combines detailed market analysis, investment underwriting, strategic property positioning, and targeted marketing designed specifically to reach multifamily investors and owner-occupant buyers.
As a Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM), Charles brings advanced training in commercial real estate and investment analysis to every transaction. He is also a seasoned real estate investor himself, giving him a practical understanding of the decisions property owners face beyond simply determining a sales price.
Charles helps clients evaluate the bigger picture—including property performance, return on equity, market timing, 1031 exchanges, replacement-property strategies, and other options—before deciding whether selling is the right move.
Through Sound Property Group and SoundMultiFamily.com, Charles provides multifamily owners with specialized market knowledge, extensive buyer exposure, and more than 20 years of transaction experience.
Whether you're considering selling now, planning an exit several years down the road, completing a 1031 exchange, or simply want to understand what your property is worth, Charles can help you evaluate your options and develop a strategy designed around your investment goals.
