The history and background of Chuck Sutton in
the auction and real estate business stems back throughout 3
generations for a continuous period of over 75 years since
Chuck’s grandfather Anton Kuhle founded the Flandreau, SD
location in 1932. In 1956 - a second generation began when
Chuck’s father Duane "Bud" Sutton joined the Anton Kuhle
Agency. In 1968 the name of the Flandreau business changed
to Kuhle-Sutton Agency and continues to this day to operate
under the firm name of Kuhle-Sutton Agency, LLC which is
located at 127 2nd Ave. W in Flandreau, SD.
In 1991 at the urging of longtime associate
Mr. Vernell Johnson, Chuck expanded his auction operation
and assumed the Sioux Falls location located at 1116 N. West
Ave. in Sioux Falls, SD (located just east of the Sioux
Falls Arena). This second location operates under the trade
name of Chuck Sutton Auctioneer and Land Broker, LLC.
It was under the tutelage of both Vernell
Johnson and Chuck’s Grandfather, Anton Kuhle, that Chuck
gained much of his knowledge and expertise in the
auction industry. This training began when he sold his first
item at auction at the age of 9 and continued part time
throughout his school years. Upon his graduation from
