Your Home Is Our Priority

Kim Doner (and her team) provided tremendous and profession assistance in our search for a new home.
The market conditions in SoCal in 2021 were brutal. Kim's assistance in successfully navigating these conditions were invaluable - leading to a successful find and saving tons of time and stress in the process.
Kim helped - as a trusted advisor - through the entire process (not simply showing a bunch of options):
- helped identify Where we wanted to look and What were our needs
- helped narrow the search to specific properties (much more than just sharing a bunch of listings)
- provided analysis and advice regarding options taking into account market conditions
- helped connect to very helpful advisors in the financing arena
- advised through the steps of deciding where to bid, bidding strategy, negotiations and agreement
- helped with contracting
- helped with inspections
- helped with remediating insepction findings
- helped through the escrow and closing process
Through the process, it was evident that Kim had significant experience successfully Listing and Selling properties that she was able to translate into effective strategies and tactics to help us Find and Buy a property. So, if you are buying or selling, you should strongly consider working with Kim Doner.

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.

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!!!

Excellent service and professionalism by Kimberly. Kimberly was sincere and helpful from beginning to end. Just the type of person you need when looking for your first home. She is very knowledgeable around the South Bay area, and informed us of everything from quiet neighborhoods, good schools, and up an coming areas. She also has a person for everything (any questions or work that needs to be done - she knows or has a person she can recommend) She was flexible with timing and availability when I requested to visit a property. Her response time for any of my questions must have been within 10 minutes. She gave us her honest view which helped us make an informative decision. I would definitely recommend Kimberly to anyone looking for a new home!

I cannot say enough positive comments to describe our experience with Kimberly. After interviewing 3 Realtors from 3 different companies, our choice was clear, Kimberly made a great impression from the beginning, knowledgeable, caring, respectful and great ideas to make our experience smooth, easy going, with the ultimate goal of maximizing our selling price, which I have to say, was Record Setting for our area. She made us feel confident in her ability from day one, so we listened and went with her ideas, which ultimately brought us the results we could only hope for. Thank you so much Kimberly for everything, we truly enjoyed working with you and would refer you to anybody looking to sell there home.
All the Best,
Robert and Sandra

We feel so grateful to have Kim as our real estate agent! As first-time homebuyers, we appreciated all the help and guidance that Kim offered. She patiently answered all our questions, thoroughly explained how the process works, and was there for us every step of the way. Even during the peak of the competitive housing market, Kim helped us find, and get our offer accepted on, a home within two weeks after meeting her. She is professional, diligent, organized, and knowledgeable, especially when it comes to the South Bay market. We would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

Sold a Condo home in 2016 in Redondo beach, CA. My experience with Kim selling my condo was great. It was my first time ever selling so I wasn't sure what to expect but she gave a good explanation of how the process would go. This meant there would be no surprises along the way - which was very important to me. She also had a great marketing strategy and advised on how to show the property the best so that we could get multiple offers. I believe this is the reason the property sold for significantly above asking. She is very quick in responding to all concerns and questions and I appreciated that she accommodated my busy work schedule. When I buy/sell in the future I will definitely be staying with Kim Doner as my representative and I would recommend for you to do the same. These properties really don't just sell themselves especially if you want top dollar so make sure to get a good agent - Kim is one of the best!

We recently purchased a property in South Redondo, but live out of state. From the first interaction with Kim, we knew we were in great hands. Kim quickly engaged in our pursuit of a second home and did not stop until we were completely satisfied. Kim is very knowledgeable and approaches the relationship as a true partnership. She understands the goals of the client and executes--whether through active listening or connecting us with professionals in other areas that could assist in the process. Kim continues to be a resource for improvements to the home. I highly recommend using Kim if you have an interest in purchasing in the South Bay area. She is a true professional!

Bought a Single Family home in 2024 in Seaside, Torrance, CA. We worked with Kim to buy our forever family home in Torrance. As a Torrance local herself, she is extremely knowledgeable and helped us to narrow down the areas we were looking to purchase in. When she found the perfect property for us, she reached out to us immediately! She educated and guided us through the entire process, making this usually stressful and nerve-wracking time as easy as possible! Kim is very personable, hard-working, thoughtful and was a joy to work with. She was very well organized and timely to meet our accelerated time line. We could not have gotten everything done so smoothly without her. In addition, Kim has a fantastic network of resources from contractors, custom furniture to pool guys! She seems to have a contact for everything! Kim went above and beyond for us and we would highly recommend her to anyone. We are very grateful to have been able to work with her and would definitely work with her again in the future if given the chance.

Highly likely to recommend Kim's work ethic is unparalleled. She quickly managed all tasks, large and small, with great efficiency. Kim saw the true value of our home and was able to get us our desired selling price BEFORE we even listed the property. Kim is professional, trustworthy and knows the market and real estate business well. She explained all nuances of the process step-by-step so we could make educated decisions. Kim is warm and friendly, very knowledgeable, an excellent communicator, savvy negotiator, professional and timely. I highly recommend Kim as she stands above and beyond others.

Highly likely to recommend Kimberly Doner and her energic and dedicated executive assistant Lauren Andrews make an incredible team. She worked with my wife and I on finding a suitable condo or townhouse at the end of 2017 and the beginning of 2018. My wife and I selected her to work with after first meeting her when she was representing the seller of a property we had brief interest in… My wife researched out her online reputation and we met with her prior to getting serious in our hunt. She and Lauren worked with us on our schedule, followed our interest and were always there for us during our search. When we did get under contract with a difficult seller who was represented by a sloppy agent with minimal understanding of contract and real estate sales principles, it immediately became evident that we had made a brilliant choice in selecting Kim to work with, Kim worked diligently and went well above and beyond to make sure she smoothed out the rough stormy problems being presented by the seller and the seller’s agent. Kim stayed with use through all the little twists turns and tribulations that were unnecessarily thrown our way by a challenging seller and seller’s underwhelming agent. Kim also provided top drawer recommendations for helping us solve the glitches and made sure we ended our purchase with nothing but fond memories.

Superlatives to describe Kim that come to mind are “Excellent, Super, Super-excellent”; she is the real deal and operates with the highest level of ethics and professionalism.

Sold a Single Family home in 2023 in Harbor city, Harbor city, CA. Kim did an amazing job helping us sell our home. Her team made our home look fantastic, and we are happy with the price it brought on the market. Highly recommend.

Bought a Single Family home in 2023 in Lakewood, CA. Kim is unquestionably one of the most knowledgeable, competent, responsive, and endearing real estate agents in the business. She was absolutely the best advocate and partner for my son (a first-time homebuyer) and me in helping us secure the purchase of his first choice (a property in Lakewood) after we had explored several listings in the South Bay area. Her professionalism was evident throughout every step of the process that she and her operations manager guided us through - from the acceptance of our initial offer (which Kim knew exactly how to price in a highly competitive market) to final closing. Kim’s experience and contacts were also critical in rapidly completing various inspections and identifying an outstanding team of contractors and home repair/improvement specialists. Kim was originally referred to us by our former neighbor (who is also in the real estate business). So we had the highest level of confidence in her stellar reputation from the onset. But the added joy of developing such a wonderful relationship with her created the best homebuying experience we could ever have imagined.

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.
