Eddie Donley - Secrets to Starting Over Revealed
Episode 433
Thursday, 8 May, 2025
Eddie Donley’s journey in real estate began in the early 2000s as a loan originator, where he honed his financial expertise before making a bold pivot. Seeing the storm brewing in 2007, he stepped away from lending and carved out a new path in real estate investing. That instinct for market shifts and his ability to adapt would define his career. In 2015, after relocating to Asheville, NC, Eddie earned his real estate license and quickly made his mark. He became a Triple Platinum KW Mega Agent, a team owner, and the Team Leader of the most profitable market center in all of Keller Williams—all while navigating an interstate move that forced him to restart his business from scratch. Then, he did it again. Now, Eddie has moved once more, this time to the Charlotte area in South Carolina, where he's rebuilding his business yet again, proving that success isn’t about location—it’s about mindset, strategy, and relentless execution. His ability to adapt, lead, and scale businesses in multiple markets speaks to his mastery of systems, leadership, and high-performance real estate. And did we mention he’s also a father of five? When Gary Keller said, "People overestimate what they can do in one year and underestimate what they can do in five," he wasn’t thinking of Eddie Donley—because Eddie has a habit of doing both. In this episode, Karen and Eddie discuss: Success Story of Eddie Commit to Get Leads Think, Seek, Choose, Act. Look around and notice who or what is being underrepresented.
