Your Home Is Our Priority

Kim was fabulous! She was knowledgable on every aspect of selling our home. She kept me informed on every detail. She always answered my questions quickly and professionally. She was helpful in supplying sources for staging, photos, moving, and all the other resources one might need. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Everyone should be as lucky as I was to find such a competent and professional realtor.

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. I would have given 10 stars if I could

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2023 in Rolling hills, CA. Where do I start? Kim is simply the best real estate agent I’ve ever worked with. She goes far beyond just professionalism, she literally made me feel like I was her #1 priority, even though I know she was juggling other clients. My needs & requests during the process never seemed to fluster her - which I greatly appreciated since I know I can be a tad high maintenance 🙂 I’ve unfortunately have dealt with some horrible agents so I am truly grateful that kim restores my faith in what a top notch agent can be.

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 home in 2017 in CA 90502. Kim was and absolute pleasure to work with. Without her I would not have gotten the house of my dreams. Her knowledge of the local real estate market was very helpful in closing my deal. I can't recommend her enough. Her 8 years of experience really showed. She was a 10 out of 10 on a scale from the start to finish. You will not be disappointed if you use her to buy or sell your house. Best, Darrin

We can't say thank you enough to Kim and Tom. In this extremely competitive market, they made our dream come true. We were able to purchase our home. They were very patient and professional, taking care of all the issues that came up. Kim and Tom are wonderful team players and communicators. They are willing to take time to listen to your needs and to make your dream come true. They are the best agents that we've ever met. We highly recommend them.

Bought a Single Family home in 2024 in Hollyglen, Hawthorne, CA. I'm so glad we found Kim as our real estate agent! A coworker recommended her after having a great experience, and now I know why. We actually worked with Kim through two home searches, and she was amazing through both of them. Kim really knows her stuff when it comes to the South Bay. She came prepared with detailed info about different neighborhoods and helped us think through pros and cons we wouldn't have considered on our own. She was always on the lookout for homes that matched what we wanted and was super quick to respond whenever we had questions. One thing that really impressed me was how organized she is. She set us up with this great timeline app that made it easy to keep track of everything we needed to do. She also has connections with really reliable service providers - from home inspectors to contractors - which was super helpful. Kim is also great at working with other agents and handling negotiations. She's professional, thorough, and really looks out for her clients' interests. Even when our first home purchase fell through (due to a complicated insurance situation with the neighboring unit), she stuck with us and helped us find an even better home. Her attention to detail and genuine care for her clients make her stand out. If you're looking for a real estate agent in the South Bay, I highly recommend giving Kim a call!

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.

Highly 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.

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!

Highly likely to recommend STOP YOUR SEARCH + LOOK NO FURTHER - Kim Doner IS THAT INCREDIBLE!
After pondering off and on for 2 years, working with only Kim and Lauren from beginning to end, we committed to selling our home in Southwood Torrance.
A true professional whose guidance we trusted and could lean on, we never once questioned or second guessed our decision working with Kim - which says so much when you have endless options.
Due to her wonderful diligence and expertise, we sold our home for more than we had ever allowed ourselves to imagine.
Work with Kim, trust her process, know she has your best interest at heart, and you too will be singing her praises.
Our family is not only thankful for Kim Doner the exceptional realtor, but also for Kim and her family whom we gained as friends ??

Highly likely to recommend Kim was everything you could ask for in a realtor. She was very knowledgeable and responsive for our entire transaction. She utilized social media as well as traditional advertising to try and maximize exposure of our home. Since we were out of state while selling the home, she made all document signings smooth by the use of DocuSign. Additionally, since she lives in the neighborhood, she was able to assess our home against all comps, identifying our strengths and weaknesses of our property. We would definitely recommend her to any friends who are selling or buying.

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.

Kimberly is not only a skillful real estate agent but also a sweet and thoughtful person. Throughout the sale of our home, she offered the most responsive, helpful and productive service. She and her team made our home become the record sale in its neighborhood with multiple offers within couple days and ended up with above asking price. I can't thank you enough for her hard-working and positive spirit. If I ever need a real estate agent again, I will always go for Kimberly.
