Your Home Is Our Priority

Highly likely to recommend If you are looking for a real estate agent that combines professionalism, expertise in her field, and is easy to work with, look no further than Kim Doner. Kim is an excellent agent and we would 100% recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a home!

We interviewed several agents when starting our home buying process and Kim was, by far, our top choice. From day one, she was a great listener and really took the time to understand what our family wanted in a new home. We were looking for our house for over a year, yet Kim always kept close tabs on our needs and prospective properties and never pressured us into a house we weren't in love with. Eventually, we found our perfect house -- and Kim's professional contacts and expert negotiation tactics helped get our offer accepted over 14 other bids without stretching our budget. Once in escrow, she was organized and on top of the entire process -- her quick thinking also helped us overcome some unforeseen hurdles in the appraisal process and allowed us to close on time. Kim even set us up with multiple tried-and-true contractors and other home improvement vendors to help us make our new home our own. It's safe to say that without Kim Doner as our agent, we definitely wouldn't have gotten our dream home--and we couldn't be happier!

Bought and sold a home in 2011. It was a pleasure working with you and we are pretty satisfied with the outcome. You have all the skills to be a successful realty agent, and I am not surprised about your recent few closing cases considering the slow housing market. We will certainly recommend you to our colleagues and friends when we are asked for reference. Also, if you need our reference for your promotion or job evaluation, please don’t hesitate to ask.

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!!!

Highly likely to recommend I had an extremely positive experience working with Kim Doner and her team during the recent sale of my home. I contacted Kim after seeing positive results when she represented the seller in the sale of a neighboring unit in my townhome complex. From day one, Kim was extremely responsive to my needs and requests and always seemed to be one step ahead of things throughout the entire sale process. Kim has a dedicated team working with her and also has top notch references for all services needed during the sale process. This includes references for home improvements, cleaning, moving services, home staging, and many more. Kim has a wealth of experience that was evident when she smoothly navigated the sale process and calmly guided me through the complexities of it along the way. I was also quite delighted when I found out that Kim is very savvy with social media and marketing which I believe was critical for maximizing exposure to my listing and profit at completion of the sale. I plan to continue to work with Kim during future real estate transactions and I highly recommend her to others.

Bought a Single Family home in 2025 in Southwood, Torrance, CA. Working with Kim was an absolute pleasure! She's got a deep understanding of the local market and makes even the most complex transactions seem effortless. What truly sets her apart is her exceptional people skills. Kim is warm, approachable, and genuinely invested in her clients' success. Her dedication also doesn't stop at closing the deal as she continued to provide valuable support and referrals after the sale was complete. It truly helped us navigate the next steps in our home ownership journey! I would give more stars if I could! 10/5 stars!

Highly likely to recommend Kim Doner is not only a friend and a neighbor, but a fantastic realtor. Recently, I had the opportunity to work with Kim and her team while purchasing my first home.
Kim and her assistant, Lauren, worked long hours, were always available to answer questions and would go out of their way to make sure I had the accurate and up-to-date information.
Kim's negotiating skills during the purchase process were outstanding; as the home I purchased required updates and repairs. I was also able to take advantage of several of Kim's professional contacts and their expertise during and after the close of escrow.
Although the purchase of a home and all that goes with it can be a challenge, I thank Kim and her team for making this first time home buyer's experience as easy as possible.
Sincerely,
Ryan Baker

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Harbor city, Harbor city, CA. Kim was absolutely amazing in helping us find our perfect house! She worked non-stop for us and her staff, including Alan Butler, visited every house with us and worked around our schedules. Couldn't have asked for anything better!

Highly likely to recommend We interviewed just over half a dozen realtors before selecting Kim Doner to represent us when selling our family home. While putting the list together for potential agents, we were first drawn to Kim by her strong sales stats and presence in the market specific to our neighborhood and community. We also noted the number of positive reviews, and the pattern of client experience we were seeing from one review to the next - the value placed not only on knowledge and expertise, but also on that level of personal connection to the client. Kim was a real standout from day one at the initial interview, and I can absolutely attest that she has lived up to every one of those 5 star reviews! She could not have made the process of updating and selling our home easier or more stress free for my sister and I. Kim has the patience of an angel. Her super power is in her ability to make you feel like her only task in life is to be there for you! Kim was always available to answer our questions, always present to the task, always paying close attention to the details. Her expertise and knowledge, her abundance of energy and confidence, and OUR absolute confidence in her, all went a long way in making the entire process as easy and pain free as can be expected when selling or buying a home.
We did quite a bit of updating to our home before listing it, to which Kim’s guidance was invaluable. Through her expertise and knowledge of current trends in the buyers market, Kim offered solid ideas for maximizing our selling price, while mindfully helping us keep within our budget. She has a great team of helpers that offer everything from inspection to staging - termite treatment and repairs, landscaping, painting, floor refinishing - you name it, Kim has connections for the job! I loved that she made a field trip out of going to the nursery with us and the landscaper to pick out just the right flowers for the yards. She really jumps in with both feet, which was both welcomed and appreciated, given neither my sister nor I possess the eye or knack for color or "aesthetic flow", which Kim seems to come by so naturally!
When listing day arrived, we were dazzled by the head to toe stunning transformation of the home “with good bones”, but starving for some TLC. Kim and her peeps - with a very special shoutout to Jodi and her team for the beautiful staging - took us to escrow after just days on the market! When all was said and done, I actually missed my daily updates from Kim - our experience was THAT pleasant!
Kim has it all - she is market smart, possesses all the knowledge, energy, resources, and PASSION - she will get the job done and make you feel pretty darn special along the way!

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 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.

Highly likely to recommend I lived out of the area where my property was sold. She knew the real estate market, was right on with value, and had the contractors/handymen to make the improvements to the property which greatly increased the value. None better!!!

We had an amazing experience working with Kim and her team on our first home purchase. She is knowledgeable, a great listener and extremely calm and patient when it comes to resolving issues and answering questions. She is also well-organized and great at communication. We highly recommend her and will look forward to working with her again for our next house purchase.

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.

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.
