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

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 ??read less

However, due to LA's extremely competitive housing market, I never quite felt comfortable or prepared for the work to come. Everyone also loves their agent and after some careful research, it was clear why a recommendation for Kim stood out. I agreed to a meet and greet, and immediately felt more prepared and at ease with the idea of her helping us find a home.
Kim is not only experienced when it comes to the process of buying a home, but she's also very much in the know when it comes to talking to competitive and reliable lenders, contractors, inspectors, you name it. She has lists and lists and lists of people that she swears by, and to this day I'm still using some of her awesome referrals and would probably be out of pocket on some serious cash had I not taken her advice.
At the end of the day, you want an agent who works as hard, or harder than you do to stay on top of things. Kim and Lauren (her incredibly awesome executive assistant) were effectively available around the clock to talk or answer dumb questions on almost any subject. Both my partner and I had crazy complicated hours due to our jobs, but we were still able to keep up with Kim & Lauren and turnaround offers and documents on a very convenient schedule. There's a reason why almost every agent we met at an open house knew of Kim, and there truly is a reason why Kim is so highly rated and respected on sites like these - she performs and leaves her clients very, very happy.read less

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!read less

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!read less

We decided to interview 3 other agents, she was our last interview and we almost canceled thinking we had made a choice on one of the others. Give yourself the chance and interview her. Just like the other reviews, she was prepared for our interview with stats, knowledge on our community and and explained her plan on marketing our home. She was good at explaining any questions we had and was frank about what the home needed to be sell ready. We had been DIY fixing our home for the last 2 years. Then we had decided to retire and move out of state. So she had a team to help support the finishing work that needed to done in a timeline that worked for us. She has a picked a strong team that we used to help groom the home that made it market ready. I loved that home before and loved it even more after she was done with it (within our budget). Which sold just over 8% of listing. It was also a good experience working with her team during the sale since we where out of state. She was always a pleasure to talk with and kept us informed though all the steps from start to finish.

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.read less

We knew it was going to be a stressful time especially when it came to one of the biggest purchases in one's life. We wanted someone trustworthy, experienced, available, and who had our best internet in mind. In all sincerity, Kim Doner exceeded our expectations.
Having experienced talking and meeting with a handful of real estate agents; we were blessed to have Kim Doner as ours. She is hard working, honest, authentic, and sincerely cared about our family of five. Through the house searching process, she put our hearts and minds at ease. It was a great experience working with her and we felt totally taken care of. Our family could not recommend anyone else as an agent. She will be our number one realtor for our future homes and our number one referral to our friends and family.read less

From our experience, we know that Kimberly Doner is an amazing realtor that will be the best choice for you. Before we picked Kim as our realtor, we talked to two other realtors that we're also popular picks in the area. However, after assessing, we knew without a doubt that Kim was the most knowledgeable and qualified out of all our picks. And even though she knew we were still deciding on which realtor to pick when we first talked to her, she still gave us her time, knowledge and went above and beyond what we expected. She is patient, informative, and logical and the list goes on. She has a great team that is always readily prepared with any information or sources. Everyone is very pleasant and it was such a great experience working with her. She always responded so quickly, always took her time over the phone to explain things to us and always texted back instantly. We don't know how she does it. She will get the job done and she will do so having you as her priority. She has a connection for anything so you don't ever have to worry about finding a trustworthy person that will do the job right. We will definitely, without a doubt, recommend her to whoever we know that wants to buy a house. We could not have found a better home, Oliver has so much fun running around our giant backyard! Thank you Kim Doner for helping us attain our amazing home. Stephanie, Ryan & Ollieread less

Highly personable, extremely knowledgeable on the South Bay, and a great process guide, Kim made the purchase process extremely smooth and enjoyable for us.
Kim started by asking what WE wanted in our first home (honestly, this is more rare than you think - most agents tell you what you should want without listening to you) and armed with that information, she guided us on the best locations in the South Bay to begin our search. But Kim's real value kicks in after your offer is accepted. Her deep knowledge for the home buying process and her responsiveness to our questions put us completely at ease throughout 'escrow'. In addition, Kim's network of inspectors, handymen, and contractors helped us take care of all the necessary work needed on our new home before we moved in. And to top it off, after we closed, Kim and her assistant Lauren offered to help manage the work being done on the home (even offering to go to the home to let workers in!).
Overall, great experience and highly recommend Kim to anyone looking in the South Bay.read less
