Your Home Is Our Priority

Highly likely to recommend I can't imagine a better agent to work with than Kim Doner. I've had the pleasure of working with her twice; first on selling my mom's house and then selling mine. She really does her research and is extremely familiar with the areas and properties. She helped me to get my place in order and then list it, and made the place look like brand new while still keeping an eye on not over-spending on non-essential fixings. I received 7 offers, all over asking price. Unfortunately I'm moving out of state and won't be able to have her as my agent for any future listings. If I could clone her, I would! Kim definitely sets the bar high, being very professional, courteous, and responsive. Do yourself a HUGE favor and hire her as your agent! You won't regret it!

Helped me rent a Single Family home in Rancho palos verdes, CA. Facing a major life decision of choosing to relocate from the East Coast to the West Coast, I was having little success in getting a real estate broker to contact me about the reality of finding a rental property that met our stringent criteria. After several failures, a friend recommended that I contact a local Keller Williams office in CA. I spoke with the head of the KW office, and he put me in contact with Kim Doner. That was the best move I could have ever made! Kim has been an invaluable resource over the past several months. Despite the distance and time zone differences, Kim was always available to me by phone or e-mail and very quick to respond to any of my needs, concerns or questions. Kim assisted me with the entire rental process from getting me set up to receive notifications of rentals as they came to market, to previewing properties and sending me virtual tours, whether by video or FaceTime. Kim was excellent in working with the landlord's broker and assisting us throughout the rental application and lease process. I am so grateful for Kim's assistance throughout our relocation process. Kim exudes professionalism and is wonderful to work with, and made this difficult personal transition as smooth as possible. It was a pleasure to work with Kim, and I look forward to a continued relationship as we look to eventually purchase a home in CA.

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 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.

Bought and sold a Single Family home in 2016 in Southwood, Torrance, CA. Kim has been a fantastic realtor! This is the second home she has helped us purchase and she is selling our current home as well. She is a great resource for anything we needed. She has super attention to detail and superior follow up skills. Her negotiation skills are also top-notch. We would and do recommend her to anyone that wants a smooth, easy and professional experience with their real-estate transaction.

Bought a home in 2016. Kim helped me with a condominium purchase from 2015 through 2016. It was a new build situation so everything was delayed again and again. Throughout the purchase, from viewing through close of escrow, Kim was essential in coordinating between the funding company, the sales office, escrow, and myself to make sure everything went as smoothly as could be possible given the situation. The sales office was difficult to get a hold of and had odd hours but Kim was able to work with them and also work with me to pass on relevant information. She is on top of things and gets the job done!

Highly likely to recommend From the very moment we met Kim, we could tell she was the right match for us! She was always readily available for a showing, gave honest feedback, and was never ever pushy which we so appreciate in a real estate agent. She was truly a breath of fresh air!

When it came time to put an offer in on our property, Kim diligently walked us through the entire process and made sure we were 100% comfortable with all the terms. And as we moved into the negotiation process, we always felt like she had our best interest at heart.

During escrow, we had a super tight timeframe to do all of our inspections and not only did Kim line everything up for us, but when new issues arised, she worked around the clock to get us bids and made sure that we knew exactly what we were undertaking financially before we committed to the property.

We feel extremely lucky to have found Kim - she brought a wealth of knowledge and compassion to the home buying experience and we couldn't be more excited to have found our new home!

We 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.

Highly likely to recommend 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!

A co-worker referred me to Kim, since my partner and I were house shopping in LA - particularly in the South Bay. Even in this curaaaazy housing market, Kim connected us with a lender we liked and ushered us through the purchasing process. It took a few attempts to get an offer accepted, but we learned about the process through every step, and now we have a beautiful home in Redondo Beach we will cherish! Thank you so much, Kim!

Bought a Single Family home in 2016 in Torrance, CA. I've sat here for over an hour trying to find the right adjectives to describe Kim, articulate our gratitude to her, and words are failing me. Our real estate story is like so many of yours and I'm sharing just a small portion of a much larger story. When we first started our search, we were all over the place and didn't have an agent. I mean, we're all clearly experts in the field of real estate because we watch hours of HGTV, right? We met Kim at a house she was selling and we immediately clicked with her. It was her professional demeanor, knowledge of the area and genuine interest in our family that convinced us she was the agent for us. With Kim's guidance and encouragement, she helped us identify exactly what we wanted and where we wanted to be. That's no easy task when you're trying to be budget conscious in the South Bay with a very specific list of needs and wants, but she rose to the occasion. We thought we found "the one" a few times over the last couple of months and every time the seller accepted another offer we felt worn down and defeated. Our failed offers had nothing to do with Kim and everything to do with the 5-10 offers we were up against..several of which were cash offers. Cash is king, right?. However, Kim was always right there to stop the pity party we were throwing for ourselves, said the right things to cure bruised egos and encouraged us to keep searching. In Kim's words, "the right one is out there and if it's meant to be it'll be". Had it not been for Kim cheering us on and lifting us up when we were tired of competing against cash offers, we wouldn't have found our perfect home. When our home popped up on the market, she was the first agent to see the house and established a genuine relationship with the sellers agent. This home had everything on our list. We wanted this house more than any other house we saw and Kim helped us come up with a new strategy on making a strong offer. She went above and beyond to hand deliver our offer, along with a note we wrote to the sellers, and stayed on standby until we heard the news that our offer was accepted. This was a lightning fast process that Kim handled like the seasoned pro she is and made sure that we knew she was always available to answer any questions we had. We will never work with another real estate agent as long as she is in the game. Kim is smart, savvy, has a pulse on the community, and has a rolodex of vendors that makes Angie's List look like amateur hour. Kim isn't just our real estate agent; she's a member of our family. Thank you, Kim for everything you did to help us get into our dream home.

I can't express how strongly I recommend Kim Donor as a realtor. Long before she became my agent in the sale of my home she put together a beautiful portfolio of comps and other valuable information at no cost to me. Four years later I didn't think twice about who I would call to sell my home. Kim is a very smart, hard-working, savvy, and personable professional. Her goal is to make you happy. The process of selling a home can be daunting but Kim guided me through with her endless support and expertise. She makes herself available at the drop of a hat. Her resources are impeccable and no time was wasted as we stuck to a very tight schedule. Needless to say the house sold quickly with 20 offers and 20% over the asking price. Kim you did it!!!! You made me very happy! Thank you Kim!

I was referred to Kim by a friend that I trust completely, and I am so appreciative to have found her. Something that is unique about Kim is when you work with her, it becomes clear that she is doing what she is meant to do. It shows not only in her professionalism, but also in her passion to take care of you - even when it's outside of what she needs to be doing. She is genuine and thoughtful. And also strong and persuasive. What a unique combination! I highly recommend her and plan to recommend her to friends in the future.

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!

Bought a Single Family home in 2025 in Torrance, CA. Return Client here! After helping us find our first home, we didn't hesitate to call Kim again when we decided to buy a second home. Not only that, she was able to help us find reputable people to assist in our needs. Specifically, she was able to help us find a reputable rental property management company that eased all the stress of finding renters. As many reviewers have stated, she really does have someone for anything you need. Thanks Kim! We look forward to working with you again in the future, whenever that is 🙂
