What our Clients Think
- Becky C. 7/18/2017My 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!read moreread less
- mbeck23 1/27/2018Highly likely to recommend Recently, I Kim helped me purchase my first house and I cannot be more happy with her help. Everyone described the process of a first time home buy as tough and frustrating, but I experienced none of that.
Kim helped me from start to finish...teaching me about the process, helping me find my house, find the appropriate price, conduct and understand inspections/repairs, and even the post-sale things. She was knowledgable, punctual, efficient, and understanding.
I would definitely recommend her to anyone, no matter their experience in home purchasing or what they are looking for. She is truly an expertread moreread less - Stephanie G. 8/09/2018Hello potential buyer(s),
First of all congratulations on your future home! From our experience, we know that Kimberly Doner is an amazing realtor that will be the best choice for you. Before we picked Kim as our realtor, we talked to two other realtors that we're also popular picks in the area. However, after assessing, we knew without a doubt that Kim was the most knowledgeable and qualified out of all our picks. And even though she knew we were still deciding on which realtor to pick when we first talked to her, she still gave us her time, knowledge and went above and beyond what we expected. She is patient, informative, and logical and the list goes on. She has a great team that is always readily prepared with any information or sources. Everyone is very pleasant and it was such a great experience working with her. She always responded so quickly, always took her time over the phone to explain things to us and always texted back instantly. We don't know how she does it. She will get the job done and she will do so having you as her priority. She has a connection for anything so you don't ever have to worry about finding a trustworthy person that will do the job right. We will definitely, without a doubt, recommend her to whoever we know that wants to buy a house. We could not have found a better home, Oliver has so much fun running around our giant backyard! Thank you Kim Doner for helping us attain our amazing home.
Stephanie, Ryan & Ollieread moreread less - epsteink2002 5/14/2018Highly likely to recommend Kim Doner has been representing my wife and I since 2015. Initially we were just keeping tabs on what's going on in the market. After we were married in 2016 we became much more serious in finding a home and raising a family. Kim always checked in to see how we were doing. She would advise us on things to consider when starting a family, advantages/disadvantages of different homes and share her honest feedback on places we were interested in. Her priority seemed to be making sure we would be happy in the long run.
We bought a house with Kim's recommendation this year. Kim was always available, helped us every step of the way during the process and made it as painless as possible. She was constantly in contact with us and followed up to see how we were doing. She treated us more like a good friend than just an agent/client relationship. She gave us great recommendations on different resources we can work with during and after closing of escrow which has been extremely helpful. She is still reaching out and in contact with us even after close of the sale and making sure we are doing ok and happy.
We have seen multiple properties which she was representing the seller. They would have an excellent presentation and attract a ton of potential buyers. Also, Kim's knowledge of the South Bay market is unrivaled.
We have always been treated with respect and kindness by Kim and her assistant Lauren. We would not hesitate to work with them again for any future house endeavors.read moreread less - mmuhr48 7/11/2016Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Harbor city, Harbor city, CA. It has been such a pleasure working with Kimberly Doner! My husband and I were referred to her by a mutual friend because she had expertise in the South Bay Area - specifically Torrance, CA. Because she has local knowledge, she was able to show us homes in areas with great schools and amenities for parents of young children. Furthermore, she is very knowledgeable and professional in all dealings and was able to assist us - first-time home buyers - through the process of buying a house. Kimberly's negotiation skills are excellent. She was able to negotiate on our behalf with the seller so that we received the best deal possible. Lastly, her team at Keller Williams was incredible and patient with us throughout the process. Her associate, Alan Butler, was our right-hand man as well. In fact, he took the time to film a video of the house for us that we eventually bought prior to us seeing it for the first time. I would highly recommend Kimberly for more than the above mentioned qualities! It has been a pleasure working with her and connecting with her!read moreread less
- cadymap 7/05/2017Bought a Single Family home in 2017 in Harbor city, Harbor city, CA. We knew Kimberly would be very knowledgeable about properties where we used to live since she was one of our neighbors, but we bought in an area unfamiliar to us, but she still had leads there, nonetheless! Along with her team, she found a property matching our requests, and took us kindly and carefully through each step -- starting while we were overseas! No detail was overlooked. She went above and beyond what is expected of a realtor; available at our convenience, answering all our questions, even when further research was required. Her patience and professional manner gave us huge confidence as she navigated us through repairs and negotiations. She offered every option she was aware of, allowing us to make the decisions that best suited our needs. When needed, she used resources beyond her own to make sure we were being served fully. Her positive, yet realistic approach made a potentially anxiety-laden experience into one where we felt we were on the right side of the deal! I highly recommend Kimberly, and her team, for buying or selling property when you want to be sure your best interests are hers. Keep up the good work!read moreread less
- sheymann 6/13/2015Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2015 in Morrison ranch, Agoura hills, CA. I can't say enough about Kim Doner! From the first time we contacted her via the zillow link she responded within 3 minutes and has maintained that level of availability for the nearly 2 years we have worked with her!!! She has patiently worked with us to find the perfect home -- previewing homes for us and taking videos/photos for us when we couldn't get there in person. She was never impatient. Never put off by our volume of questions, emails, texts, or calls. Her professionalism and work ethic are without compare. She is an expert negotiator and advocate for her clients. She fought for us every step of the way, scheduled everything, followed up with us & kept us in the loop (so important for me). She guided us through the purchase of our new home and sale of our old one. To say we were probably one of her more high maintenance clients would be fair. And yet she NEVER showed any frustration or exhaustion with us. She gently suggested and reiterated her professional opinion, but ultimately let us make the final decisions. I would, WITHOUT HESITATION, recommend Kim Doner to ANY BUYER OR SELLER that is lucky enough to use her services. I respect her so much. Having worked with a handful of other agents over the years I can HONESTLY say she is one in a million. Don't think twice about Kim. Call her and work with her for one week. If you aren't convinced even after the first day I'll eat my hat!!read moreread less
- Katie C. 11/14/2016We love Kim! My husband and I are so happy and were extremely impressed by our experience with Kim as our agent. From our first meeting with her through the close of escrow for our new home, Kim was smart, professional, attentive to every detail, informative and provided amazing advice. As first time homebuyers, Kim made everything so easy to understand and gave us great advice before every big decision we had to make along the way. We never imagined that the home buying process would be so pleasant, but Kim made it such a great experience. She led us in the right direction, and we ended up beating out two other offers to get into our home, which we love. We will be recommending Kim to everybody and anybody we know that is looking to buy or sell a home. She is truly a rockstar at what she does and hopefully you will be as lucky as we were to have her through this process as well.read moreread less
- Nonnacathy 11/08/2018Highly likely to recommend To whom it may concern,
If you are looking for a real estate agent Kimberly Doner is your lady for you. She sold our house in 1 day getting more than what we asked. She is extremely professional, personable, and detailed oriented. She staged our home to sell using a dynamic team consisting of not just her but a professional stager and photographer as well. Her sales results speak for herself. You won't be disappointed.
Sincerely
Joe & Cathy D'Amatoread moreread less - kevinjfisher 4/24/2018Highly likely to recommend As first-time buyers and fairly new to the area, Kim was excellent in making the process as smooth as possible.
She helped us find properties within our budget and geographic requirements and when we were ready to make an offer, she guided us through the process and all of the documents so that we could move along as smoothly and quickly as possible.
It was a pleasure working with Kim to get our home, and we would definitely recommend her to anyone else looking to buy in the South Bay.read moreread less - user3922539 2/20/2013Bought 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.read moreread less
- severios777 6/16/2022Highly 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.read moreread less - Jennifer R. 7/25/2017We 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.read moreread less
- user583159 2/08/2018Highly likely to recommend Kim gave us a great first-time home buying experience in 2012 and she delivered once again when we purchased our second home this month. She helped us buy in our desired neighborhood where listings are scarce and homes are snatched up within days they hit the market. In this competitive environment, Kim was also able to get us our purchase price under asking! We definitely recommend Kim to anyone looking for a trustworthy realtor who looks out for your best interests.read moreread less
- user50157315 9/13/2021Highly likely to recommend Kim is great. My wife and I were first-time homebuyers, and a bit overwhelmed by the process and the crazy market. Kim walked us through everything… she was patient, straight-shooting and supportive throughout. Her and her team - Lauren and Tom - are so friendly and helpful, and always made time for us. She is an amazing connector, too… she’s put us in touch with so many great people and resources. We feel very lucky to have had Kim in our corner.read moreread less
