Chuck Gillooley is a top-producing agent and member of the National Association of Realtors® who has been passionately serving the Mid-Peninsula market since 2007. He has successfully assisted hundreds of families and individuals in making their real estate goals a reality — whether that’s buying their very first home or selling their current home to start a new chapter in their lives. Chuck holds a Bachelor of Science in electrical engineering (BSEE) and brings over 20 years of successful high-tech sales experience to the real estate field, making him one of the very few technically degreed agents in the industry today.

 

His innate knowledge of technology, tools, and data enables Chuck to dive deep into the local real estate market and provide his clients with invaluable insight into market trends and detailed home sales data. He is the creator and author of The White Oaks Blog, which was created in 2007 to become a free and invaluable resource to homebuyers and sellers and has rapidly become the predominant source of real estate news in San Carlos. But technology alone is not what makes Chuck one of the top San Carlos agents every year — he is consistently ranked by RealTrends in the top 1.5% of agents in the nation and among the top 10 in the San Carlos market. The real estate industry will always be a “people business,” and Chuck prides himself in providing first-class, high-touch concierge service for all his clients, whether they are buying or selling. He passionately subscribes to the mantra “Be of service” and firmly believes that helping people with their real estate needs is a lifelong relationship, not simply a one-time transaction.

The local real estate market has been white-hot for over the past decade. Chuck’s expertise in the preparation and marketing of his listings has helped his clients not only achieve their sales goals but often exceed those goals by hundreds of thousands of dollars. He also helps his buyers successfully navigate the perilous waters of the competitive, multiple-offer scenarios that have dominated the real estate market since the Great Recession. Chuck is a lifelong resident of the San Francisco Peninsula, having lived in San Carlos for over 30 years and nearly as long in Redwood City. He raised three children who attended elementary and middle schools in San Carlos and then subsequently attended Sequoia High School. He proudly counts many of the teachers and administrators of these schools as his clients. His “boots on the ground” knowledge of the local area give Chuck a unique perspective on what makes this area so desirable to live in and enable him to provide his clients with hyper-focused advice that many other agents simply cannot provide.

 

The “big picture” for Chuck is helping enrich the lives of his clients while also making the community a better place to live. He has served as a board member of the Sequoia High School Education Foundation and devotes his spare time to the San Carlos AYSO as a coach, board member, and referee. Chuck also donates a portion of every commission to his favorite charity, Home for a Home, which builds affordable housing for people living below the poverty level in Guatemala. If you’re looking to buy or sell a home on the Mid-Peninsula, you need to touch base with Chuck. You’ll find that his data-driven approach and full-touch concierge service are exactly what you need to be successful in this fast-paced and ultra-competitive real estate market.
