Your Guide to Buying a Home

Don Jacks is a business and leadership coach and real estate professional with Impact Properties, based in Placentia, CA, with over 30 years of success in entrepreneurship, real estate, and high-level coaching. Licensed with the California DRE since 1997 (License #01231532), Don has personally closed 188 real estate transactions and, through more than two decades of training and mentoring other agents, has been involved in thousands more — serving buyers, sellers and investors across Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties. His client relationships are reflected in 22 Google reviews, 11 Zillow reviews, and 5 Facebook reviews. Since 2002, he has expanded that hands-on market experience into coaching — helping growth-minded business owners, team leaders, and real estate agents build the systems, mindset, and accountability structures needed to scale intentionally.

As a coach with Tom Ferry — the nation's top real estate coaching company — for more than 14 years, and working internationally as a Mastery Business Coach, Don has delivered over 15,000 coaching sessions to hundreds, if not thousands, of business owners and real estate agents across the United States and abroad over the course of his career, drawing on three decades of hands-on business, real estate, and leadership experience. Don is also a published author of two books, a frequent speaker, and an experienced podcast host and guest.

Beyond coaching, Don remains an active, licensed real estate professional serving Southern California clients directly, giving his coaching a real-world edge grounded in current market conditions rather than theory. A lifelong Southern California native, he has guided both first-time homebuyers, home sellers and multimillion-dollar investors across Orange, Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties with a client-first mindset and a reputation for integrity — even as his coaching practice has grown to reach clients nationwide and internationally. Outside of work, Don is a proud husband to his wife Jo Ann of more than 30 years and a dedicated father to four children — values of faith, family, and focus that show up in every relationship he builds, whether with a coaching client or a home buyer.
