Your Home Is Our Priority

Highly likely to recommend We recently worked with Kim to sell an investment property. The property had been a rental for many years and needed work. Kim was extremely knowledgeable about the improvements we needed to make in order to get the greatest return on our investment. She coordinated everything with the repair crew and also recommended a wonderful staging company. Kim and her associates were professional, quick to respond, and made the whole experience as stress-free as possible. In the end, the property looked amazing! We received multiple offers and it sold quickly for more than the asking price. We are extremely happy with Kim's services and will definitely use her for any future real estate transactions.

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.

Highly likely to recommend For a first time homebuyer like me, it could be an overwhelming experience. Kim walked us through every step of the way. It was not pure business on her part, it was not all about closing the deal. Kim will always ask "is this something that you would want?". She will point out both the pros and cons to make sure we will make an informed decision. We finally found our home. Kim and her team were the forces behind the fulfillment of this dream.

Dear Kim:

I just wanted to take a few minutes to thank you for all the help you provided with the recent sale of my home on Ladeene Avenue.

At a time when you continually hear about how difficult it is to sell a home, you certainly quelled all my fears. As we charted out our path toward this sale, you assured me that you would provide support and resources along the way. Well, you certainly exceeded my expectations at every turn. Even though I was going to be away on a trip, you were able to coordinate and oversee the renovations to my home. The resources you found for the work to be done were professional and exacting in their work. They kept to their work schedule and completed the project on time. But, I knew you were monitoring their progress along the way.

Now of course I had a home that was ready but would it sell. Again, with your professional guidance, this was not an issue. The time we spend reviewing recent comps for the area and your knowledge about sales activities allowed us to establish a price that was fair and enticing to buyers. With offers to review I was thrilled that we were in escrow within a week. And even with a few issues along the way, you provided all the necessary support to make the process very smooth.

I cannot begin to express my appreciation for the level of professionalism you displayed throughout this process. Your calm and knowledgeable approach to this stressful process was exactly what I was looking for in an agent. You can be assured that your name will be on the top of my referral list.

Sincerely,

Colette Steele

Found a tenant for a home in CA 90717. Kim is very thorough and precise in her paperwork and gets the job done as expected! She is knowledgeable and a great help. I would recommend her to anyone. She has helped me find 2 great tenants.

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2026 in Southwood, Torrance, CA. Kim is such an incredible realtor and knew I could trust her every step of the way through our journey of selling our home and buy another. She is such a knowledgeable guide, an amazing resource, and an understanding person. She also had excellent communication and follow through. This whole journey of selling or home and buying another was such an emotional process for us - yet she always took every one of our curveballs with stride, reassured us through the bumps, and had our best interest at heart. Not only did Kim go above and beyond for us but she also had amazing recs from staging to landscaping. I’m confident that because of her expertise and guidance we were able to get $146k over asking which was a new record for our neighborhood! I recommend Kim 1000%!

There're so many good things about Kim, that we don't even know where to start. We are first time homebuyers and we've been talking about buying a house for a few years now. Seeing how competitive the market is nowadays, we started reaching out to realtors for general advice. At the time we found Kim, we had already talked to a few well rated realtors that specialized in the South Bay area, but at the end of the first consultation with Kim, we knew she was THE ONE. Unlike the other realtors we reached out to, Kim was very personable, always checked in on us, always followed up with other parties involved and most importantly, always talked about real estate in a way a regular person could easily understand. This meant the world to us as first time homebuyers; she alleviated any anxiety of buying a home and truly made it a fun and exciting experience. She really likes to get to know the buyer so that she makes sure to get the perfect house. At the same time, she meant business and she's strategic too. When it came to bidding wars (which is always the case in the South Bay), she always got us into being one of the top considerations. Houses that we didn't end up getting just got to the point where we thought it wasn't worth it, but it helped us get a feel of how competitive the market really was and the market is crazy. Kim really helped us prepare for that. But oh boy, when we found a house that we really wanted, she really fought for it. Lo and behold, WE GOT IT! We found out from the seller that the way a realtor does business on the buying end truly matters. It was all thanks to Kim! If I could describe Kim in one word it would be: synergy. She's always in sync the sellers, the lender, and us. Whenever I'd ask or follow up on something, she'd already been working it and I'd get it within minutes. In addition Kim has an arsenal of contacts for anything you need, whether it be for renovations, fixes, services, you name it- she's got it!(and yes, she's also recommended us a lot of good restaurants :)) Overall, to us, she's way more than just a realtor because she'd go above and beyond to get the perfect house for you. Her and her executive assistant, Lauren, are heaven sent. She'd be the first person to call if we do ever decide to get another house, but to be honest, I think we'll be staying at the current house that she helped us get for a long while because it's that perfect. I'd recommend her in a heartbeat.

We met Kim when we had interest in purchasing a home in Torrance. From the beginning Kim was with us every step of the way. We always felt comfortable asking any question and she always took her time answering and ensuring we understood. We had to pull out of the market for about a year but Kim still kept us in the loop until we were ready to start the search again. This time we found our new home!!! Kim helped us move through the process quickly as we asked for a 30 day or less escrow. We had an international trip booked for quite some time and wanted to close before we left. Due to us leaving THE DAY WE CLOSED, Kim and her assistant Lauren, have gone above and beyond helping us with vendors while we're away and being our liaison in our absence. We cannot recommend Kim and Lauren enough. If you're looking for a seasoned realtor who know what it takes and works with your best interest in mind, look no further. We've already referred her to a close friend and undoubtedly will do so again. We not only have a realtor but also made a friend! Thank you Kim and her team!!!

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.

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 2025 in Blanco/culver crest, Culver city, CA. Kim is super knowledgeable, professional, and deeply understands the different micro-markets within LA. We really enjoyed working with her and all her help in finding us our home. Highly recommend!

I've worked with Kim through 3 transactions over 15 years and there's a reason she continues to earn my business. Unlike many real estate agents who seem like their primary concern is closing A deal, Kim's concern is always making sure it's the RIGHT deal for her clients. She found a way to get my family our dream home despite myriad issues and complications along the way by using not just her knowledge of the market and the industry but by employing some very creative thinking. She's easy to work with and maintains her kind personality while being professional. I tell all my friends to us 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.

Highly likely to recommend My previous experience with real estate was a very poor advised purchase over 8 years ago that ended in a short sale. Having said that I have been very wary of the whole industry.

I was referred to Kimberly about 6 years ago to help me find a rental in Redondo Beach. Kimberly went out of her way to show me the property that would only be a rental.

A few years later she helped me purchase a condo in Torrance. She made the process seamless and efficient. 3 years later we needed to sell this condo, and Kimberly again stepped up to help us. I was at a point in time where I did not have much time to spare, and she basically said to trust her and she would make it very easy for me.
And that she did. She was patient and polite when I did not always respond in the timely manner. She made the process very simple for me and I put all my trust in her experience. With her professionalism and knowledge, I knew this would be a very manageable sale. We had multiple offers within a few days of putting the condo on the market and ultimately closed in 30 days way over the asking price. She is extremely organized, patient and always available for questions and clarification.

In the right hands I have regained my faith in the real estate market. I will be using Kimberly soon to help me purchase a home for me and my family. I highly recommend Kimberly in any real estate transactions you may need.

Sold a Single Family home in 2025 in Rolling hills, CA. Kim is an outstanding realtor who has extensive knowledge to guide her clients through this tough housing market. She was able to help sell the house for top dollar and made the whole process as easy as possible. She was responsive to all of my questions and her team made the whole process smooth despite my busy schedule. I highly recommend her services, you won’t be disappointed!!!
