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. read less

Highly likely to recommend Excellent agent, professional and knowledgeable. We used her for buying in 2014 and selling in 2017. We would use her again if we need a real estate professional.

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!!! read less

My husband and I are so happy and were extremely impressed by our experience with Kim as our agent. From our first meeting with her through the close of escrow for our new home, Kim was smart, professional, attentive to every detail, informative and provided amazing advice. As first time homebuyers, Kim made everything so easy to understand and gave us great advice before every big decision we had to make along the way. We never imagined that the home buying process would be so pleasant, but Kim made it such a great experience. She led us in the right direction, and we ended up beating out two other offers to get into our home, which we love. We will be recommending Kim to everybody and anybody we know that is looking to buy or sell a home. She is truly a rockstar at what she does and hopefully you will be as lucky as we were to have her through this process as well. read less

If you are looking for a real estate agent Kimberly Doner is your lady for you. She sold our house in 1 day getting more than what we asked. She is extremely professional, personable, and detailed oriented. She staged our home to sell using a dynamic team consisting of not just her but a professional stager and photographer as well. Her sales results speak for herself. You won't be disappointed.

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,

She was always available (24/7) to answer questions or explore concerns.  Kim kept us on track and made sure the process ran smoothly as possible.  Not one to "settle", Kim patiently stood by us as we looked at house after house for our new home.  Her persistence and excellent negotiating skills gave us the edge on the winning offer.  Kim goes above and beyond even after the sale is complete. She stays involved with the fine tunings of selling or buying a home, from repairs to home renovation.  Kim is the consummate professional, yet caring and generous friend. read less

She had our home sold almost instantly (without even going on the market!) for a substantial amount over the appraised value AND we set a new record for highest sale price for any original sized home in our tract. Kim made everything completely seamless, simple and clear for us throughout the process. I wouldn't trust anyone else with such an enormous decision and anyone looking to buy or sell in the South Bay needs to at least do themselves the favor of speaking with Kim for the job. Her attention to details and professionalism is second to none! read less

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! read less

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! read less

From our first meeting with her, it was obvious that she genuinely cared about us as people and wanted to make sure we found a house that we could call home. She explained to us what the basic process was going to be, and then took the time to talk to us about what our needs and wants were, what was realistic, and where to start. Kim, and her assistant Lauren, went to preview houses when we couldn’t get to them and gave us great reports, and even videos, on what they saw. Kim was honest in answering our questions, very knowledgeable, and gave us different ways to look at things, but never tried to push us in any direction. Her patience was unwavering as we talked through big decisions with her, sometimes several times over. She always found the time to answer questions, making it work despite all of our crazy schedules. Kim is incredibly detail-oriented, and she has a person for everything. That made the inspection process substantially less stressful than it could have been because we knew we could trust her recommendations (all of the vendors we wonderful!); plus Kim and Lauren took care of setting up all of the appointments for us. It could not have been easier! We are thrilled with how everything worked out, and we enthusiastically recommend Kim to anyone looking to purchase a house in the South Bay! read less
