About Me – Don A. Persons

I have been fortunate to build a successful career in Honolulu’s real estate industry, bringing decades of expertise and sales success to Hawaii’s competitive market. As the former owner, president, and principal broker of Gold Coast Real Estate, Inc. and Diamond Head Real Estate, Inc., I played a pivotal role in shaping the luxury and waterfront real estate sectors on Oahu.

Throughout my career, I have remained at the forefront of market trends, consistently delivering record-breaking sales and providing exceptional service to my clients. My leadership skills and deep understanding of the market have helped me establish a reputation as the go-to broker for sellers looking to position their premier properties for maximum exposure and top-dollar sales. Negotiating complex transactions, adapting to shifting market conditions, and leveraging strategic marketing techniques have been key to my continued success.

Perhaps the most rewarding aspect of my career is the opportunity to live and work in the same neighborhood for over 40 years. I take great pride in my community, and my dedication extends beyond real estate. I have been actively involved in volunteer efforts such as the Honolulu Marathon and weekly neighborhood police patrols. My past roles include serving as a maintenance supervisor for Honolulu City & County Parks & Recreation and working as a resident manager within the community. I am also proud to be a member of the Outrigger & Elks Clubs, as well as the Waikiki and Diamond Head Rotaries. Over the years, I have contributed my experience and leadership to multiple Boards of Directors.

If you’re considering buying or selling property on the Gold Coast or beyond, I would love to put my extensive local market knowledge to work for you. Give me a call today!
