Your Home Is Our Priority

We first spoke with Kim a few years ago and she was very professional and helpful. When we started our search for a new home, we thought of Kim and reached out to her once again. If we could dream up an ideal realtor who checks off all the boxes for us, she is the one!

1. She is so knowledgeable about the market. We felt so confident knowing that we had Kim on our team and we felt like we would definitely get our dream home.

2. She is very responsive. My husband and I both appreciate professionalism and she is top notch. She not only responds quickly but will go above and beyond with more information. Responding to texts or writing an offer and hashing out details can be time sensitive and the difference between getting the house or not- and Kim is an expert! She might be working 24 hours a day, or has a clone- because how could anyone be this amazing??

She also helped us rent our first home. She helped us with the process and offered valuable advice all along the way!

Lauren was also wonderful and such a great resource! Searching for a home goes beyond just the search. It felt like the search is the start and writing an offer and going through escrow is level 2. We are so lucky we got to work with Kim and got our dream home! We couldn't be happier and still can't believe how painless the whole process was during such a competitive market. Thank you so much Kim and Lauren! You are simply the best!

Sold a Multiple Occupancy home in 2015 in Northwest torrance, Torrance, CA. Words cannot describe our experience with Kim. From the moment of first contact she was always there; beginning to end. She truly cared about our feelings, circumstances and expectations. Never in a million years would we have thought she'd sell our property within days of listing. It was the most amazing and unexpected result. So smooth and quick. If you are looking for a GREAT agent we HIGHLY RECOMMEND her. She is truly a fabulous, kind, warm person who displays incredible professionalism. You will not be disappointed

Bought a Single Family home in 2017 in Palo del amo, Torrance, CA. My husband and I wanted to move from the Westside to the South Bay and we needed an expert in this area. After meeting with Kim for the first time, we just had a good feeling about Kim. I never imagined that the home buying process could actually be this painless! She was in constant communication with us and made sure that we understood every step of the process. She answered every single one of our many questions and helped us to weigh all the pros and cons so that we can make informed decisions. It's been just over two months since we first met with Kim and I am writing this review from our beautiful new home!

We had someone recommend Kim to us and we couldn't be more grateful for it. She was very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly to work with. Kim always kept us informed and used her expertise to give us the best service. She always went above and beyond - nights and weekends. She even provided us with names and resources to help out once we had our new home. If you are buying or selling a house, look no further than Kim Doner.

In the insanity of the real estate market, Kim is the steady hand that will guide you and help you in purchasing your next home!
Kim will walk you through the home buying process and not only was she super patient, answering any and all questions you had, but she would get back to you quickly, and her team was also on top of everything from beginning to end.
Kim would always send us any properties she felt would fit our budget, and we are so glad that she was on our side.
She is the best of the best. Do not hesitate to use her for your next home purchase. You'll be glad you did.

Kim Doner is awesome! I've worked with her on my real estate needs for over 9 years now. She has assisted me in buying, selling, leasing, and leasing out homes. I've been extremely happy with her service each and every time.

Most recently I bought a home in Manhattan Beach. I mainly live abroad now so my availibility to see and make an offer on the place was very limited. Kim was able to work quickly to not only schedule my viewing of the place, but also to get as much information as possible for me prior to making an offer. Kim has great relationships with all the local agents and was able to get me valuable information which made my offer compelling to the seller.

Once I had my offer accepted Kim was instrumental in helping me get through all the paperwork. This would have been super challenging for me since I was out of the country for most of it. Kim made it super easy for me. I'm really thankful for that.

Since I plan to rent out my newly purchased house Kim is now helping me get bids to fix up my place a bit prior to putting it out for lease.

I urge anybody to call Kim before buying or selling a home. She really goes way beyond the call of duty for her clients.

A co-worker referred me to Kim, since my partner and I were house shopping in LA - particularly in the South Bay. Even in this curaaaazy housing market, Kim connected us with a lender we liked and ushered us through the purchasing process. It took a few attempts to get an offer accepted, but we learned about the process through every step, and now we have a beautiful home in Redondo Beach we will cherish! Thank you so much, Kim!

Bought a home in 2012 in CA 90266. I don't usually write reviews for anything, but Kim is an exceptional real estate agent, so for her I will make an exception! Kim is an extremely efficient and assertive person, which is highly desirable in an agent. We were looking for a house in an extremely tight market, and aside from the normal house hunting methods, she had innovative and effective strategies to help us find properties. She was also very good at previewing any house in which we expressed interest and then providing us with a comprehensive assessment of the house before we ever looked at it ourselves. I found that very helpful in allowing us to focus only on properties that were viable candidates rather than wasting our time with a bunch of random open houses. We had a challenging escrow that was occurring during the holidays, and throughout the whole thing, Kim was relentless in getting us as much information as possible, streamlining all the inspections and any other detail or task that was needed. She was available to us 24 hours a day 7 days a week during the holiday season, and she was instrumental in us ending up with our dream house. I would recommend her to anyone with no reservations. She always made us feel that we were in the best hands possible.

Helped me rent a Single Family home in South orange, NJ. I am moving from New York City and Kim was a huge help. Not only did she spend time getting me acquainted with the area , she listened to my preferences and showed me only relevant apartments. She was very responsive and followed up to make sure I was satisfied. I would highly recommend her.

Bought a home in 2012 in CA 90503. As first-time buyers, my husband and I were excited and a bit nervous about purchasing a home. The process could not have gone smoother. From the first meeting when we received our loan pre-approval to the day we got the keys, Kim was with us every step of the way, making sure we were comfortable with our decision. She accommodated our busy schedules -- my husband's with his job and mine as the mother of a young toddler -- by sending us documents to sign electronically and even meeting with inspectors at our new home when we couldn't be there. Her own experience in doing a recently major home renovation allowed us to see houses beyond the cosmetic. My family is now happily settled into our new home and we have Kim to thank.

Bought a Single Family home in 2012 in Southwood, Torrance, CA. Kim, I received your text the other day and Kerie told me all of the extremely nice (and unnecessary) things you did for us once the house closed, thank you so much. Not just for the gift, but for your professionalism and support through the home buying process. As I mentioned we have worked with a number of realtors over the past ten years and you have been far and away the most professional and accommodating agent we have worked with. Kerie and I would be more than happy to be a reference if you desire, we'll also be on the lookout for any future buyers or sellers to send your way (we have already told Kerie's brother and his fiancée that they are foolish if they don't work with you when they are ready to buy). We look forward to having your family over for a BBQ once we've settled in a bit. Thanks again Kim, take care, Brian and Kerie Albano

Highly likely to recommend We need to preface this review with noting that we are admittedly hard to please. Over the years we have worked with a number of real estate brokers when looking for and buying homes in the Los Angeles area, and without a doubt Kim is one of the very best we have ever worked with. Not only was she a delight to interact with, but every meeting we had or task she performed was flawless in its professionalism. Our hunt for a second home located in the South Bay lasted almost two years. Throughout our lengthy search, Kim was patient and always attentive to our questions and needs. She worked like a true professional advisor should: listen to our list of preferences (which changed over time), work around our busy schedules whenever possible, keep us informed, and explain everything as needed along the way. On top of that she was intuitive about the level of information and interaction we needed - always the right balance of staying connected without ever being pushy. When we finally decided on the home we wanted, she made sure that everything was done quickly and all bases were covered. She gave us sage advice on how to present our offer in the best possible manner in a competitive market. We ended up getting the home we wanted! She was also helpful in providing specialists and resources along the way and after our purchase - which is very convenient when you are new in an area.
In sum, Kim is a fantastic agent. If you are looking for a home in the South Bay and want a broker who is authentic, easy to work with, and excellent at her job, Kim is your agent.

Highly likely to recommend When we initial thought about buying a house; we had several friends recommend their realtor. We knew it was going to be a stressful time especially when it came to one of the biggest purchases in one’s life. We wanted someone trustworthy, experienced, available, and who had our best internet in mind. In all sincerity, Kim Doner exceeded our expectations.

Having experienced talking and meeting with a handful of real estate agents; we were blessed to have Kim Doner as ours. She is hard working, honest, authentic, and sincerely cared about our family of five. Through the house searching process, she put our hearts and minds at ease. It was a great experience working with her and we felt totally taken care of. Our family could not recommend anyone else as an agent. She will be our number one realtor for our future homes and our number one referral to our friends and family.

Highly likely to recommend Kim was integral to us buying our dream home. She is incredibly knowledgeable, honest, and patient. She provided guidance and expertise every step of the way, which was so important to us as first-time home buyers. Kim knows the market exceptionally well and understands how to find the ideal property to suit a buyers wants, needs and budget. Beyond being a true professional and expert at all things real estate, she is a genuinely awesome person and made the entire experience so very positive.

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Southwood, Torrance, CA. I have worked with Kim Doner for about 5 years looking for the perfect house for us. She never got frustrated with the length of time it took or wavered in her commitment to help us find our home. I almost didn't go look at the house we ultimately bought because I didn't want to waste her time. She encouraged us to come see it and helped us put together a compelling offer in terms of price, terms, financing, etc. Once in escrow she was on top of the details and deadlines. She gave us invaluable contacts for a handyman, landscape architect, moving company, painter, and more. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a realtor in this area.
