Fran O'Donnell

Fran O’Donnell is the dynamic and indefatigable leader of the Fran O’Donnell Team, proudly powered by Dan Helwig Realtors. Coming full circle in his career, Fran returns to this respected local brokerage after gaining invaluable experience at major firms like Keller Williams.

Fran sees the true value in working with a local, boutique brokerage—one that allows him to serve the community with a hands-on, personalized approach that big-box brokerages simply can’t match. For Fran, it’s about making a difference in the lives of his clients, not just making a deal.

An entrepreneur at heart, Fran owned and operated the beloved O’Doodles Toy Store, bringing fun and community connection to every customer. He’s also served as a Lead Technology Trainer for Fox & Roach and as the Main Street Manager for the Chestnut Hill Business Association, always finding ways to uplift others.

A long-time Flourtown resident, Fran has been happily married to his wife Kerry for 38 years and is a proud father of three. He’s active in his church choir, a committed Knight of Columbus, and a passionate supporter of young adults with intellectual disabilities through his work with JEVS.

With a commitment to “keeping it real in real estate,” Fran’s diverse background, entrepreneurial drive, and deep community ties make him a trusted, energetic, and impactful partner in your real estate journey.
