EVALUATE
We walk the property together and determine what should—and shouldn't—be done before selling.

Don O’Neill—you may know me from The Ron and Don Show.
HAND ME THE KEY.LEAVE THE REST TO ME.
Selling a home can be overwhelming.
It doesn't have to be.
I help you self-flip your home—prepare it, improve it and sell it—with the goal of putting the increased value in your pocket.

The self-flipDON'T SELL IT SHORT.
DON'T SELL IT SHORT.
SELF-FLIP IT.
When a home has deferred maintenance, owners often sell it at a discount to a flipper or builder. They fix it up, resell it and keep the upside.
I help you self-flip the home so that opportunity stays with you.
Together, we decide which improvements make financial sense. I assemble and manage the contractors, repairs, landscaping, staging and marketing—then sell the home, with the goal of putting the increased value in your pocket.
The goal: put that money in your pocket, instead of the flipper's or builder's.
You make the decisions. I handle the work.

HOW IT WORKS
PLAN
We build a clear plan, budget and timeline using trusted contractors and firm bids whenever possible.
PREPARE
I coordinate the work and manage the moving pieces so you don't have to become your own general contractor.
SELL
Once the house is ready, we stage it, photograph it, market it and sell it—with the goal of putting the increased value in your pocket.
When the next step feels overwhelming
SOMETIMES LIFE HANDS YOU A HOUSE.
Maybe you've inherited a property. Maybe Mom or Dad can no longer live there. Maybe decades of belongings, deferred maintenance and repairs have piled up.
That's where I come in.
SIT DOWN WITH DONExperience that gets things done
WHY DON?
I've spent 35 years in broadcasting asking questions, solving problems and telling people's stories. I bring that same approach to real estate.
With experience across 135+ homes and a network of over 100 different contractors, I coordinate your self-flip from preparation and construction through marketing and sale.
The key is knowing what work will help sell your house—and what isn't worth your money.
Seattle roots. Community first.
MORE THAN REAL ESTATE.
Community work has always been part of my life—from charity efforts on the radio and podcast to the Les Schwab Toy Drive and coaching Lincoln High School football.
And yes, everybody loves Charlie.
