Kim Doner

Kim recently listed my property in Manhattan Beach and on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the best, Id give her a 100. She was simply outstanding. I have bought and sold properties and I am a realtor myself, so I have worked and dealt with a lot of realtors. Kim is hands down the best realtor I have ever dealt with. She showed up to our first meeting incredibly well prepared and knowledgeable. She had researched all the different issues, including the difficult ones, she had spoken to architects, developers, appraisers, etc, and was so well prepared that I dont think it was possible to be any more prepared than she was. She was calm, professional, analytical, decisive, and responsive to all of my questions and concerns. I wish I could use her in all of my future real estate dealings!

I truly cannot put into words how thankful and grateful we are for everything Kim did for us throughout our homebuying journey. She and her team came prepared with every tool, resource, and bit of knowledge we needed to find our forever home. She was always just a call or text away, ready with guidance, reassurance, and answers to even our smallest questions.Kims expertise in real estate is unmatched, and she consistently put our worries at ease. As someone who can get pretty anxious, I can honestly say I would not have felt this confident, supported, or happy without her by our side. Having Kim as our agent made all the difference, and we are endlessly appreciative.

If you are looking for a realtor who truly cares, look no further than Kim Doner and her team at Compass. She wasn't just our agent; she was a supportive guide through the biggest purchase of our lives. She was so sweet with our two daughters, even giving them little gifts to celebrate the move- a gesture that meant the world to us. She is professional, kind, and exceptionally fast with communication. She provided excellent recommendations for home improvement projects, and has gone above and beyond, checking in with us regularly even after our move. It has been our dream to own a home in Torrance and Kim helped make that dream a reality. We are beyond thankful for her help and would recommend her to first-time buyers and seasoned homeowners alike. Thank you Kim!!!

Kim is super knowledgeable, professional, and deeply understands the different micro-markets within LA. We really enjoyed working with her and all her help in finding us our home. Highly recommend!

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 :)

Kim is an outstanding realtor who has extensive knowledge to guide her clients through this tough housing market. She was able to help sell the house for top dollar and made the whole process as easy as possible. She was responsive to all of my questions and her team made the whole process smooth despite my busy schedule. I highly recommend her services, you wont be disappointed!!!

Kim helped us every step of the way when we got our new home. The housing market has changed a lot sonce the last time we bought a home. She responded quickly and provided a lot of transparency, recommending the beat options. Communication was clear and she followed up with the right people.

Kim Doner is an amazing real estate agent with unmatched expertise in the South Bay market. She made the entire process of buying our home smooth and stress-free, always ensuring we were informed and well-prepared for every decision. Kims attention to detail, professionalism, and timely communication were invaluable, and her genuine care for us as clients truly stood out. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable, but she also has an amazing eye for design, offering helpful and insightful advice that helped us envision our future home. Kim is truly the best and we are so thankful for all her help and advice!

I found Kimberly on my own checking different real estate companies. I read her bio and her thoughts regarding how she works with her clients. I wanted as seller's agent with experience. She has excellent experience. My initial interview with her went very well. She listened to me. Some realtors in my past have been very aggressive and frankly pushy. Kimberly is thoughtful, honest, comes with a team, and always just a call away. I couldn't have done any better.

I recently had the pleasure of Kim representing me through the purchase of my new condo. To say that Kim went above and beyond to complete my transaction, would be a huge understatement. She demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, commitment and tenacity I have ever experienced. She guided me through a challenging escrow with such patience and grace, tirelessly fighting for my needs at every turn. Even though I know that she has many other clients, she always made me feel like I was her only one. She is extremely responsive and able to complete the most difficult tasks within a timely manner. She also had the ability to work well with the listing agent and resolve seemingly insurmountable obstacles. If you are looking for an agent who will represent you like no other, Kim is the one for you.

Weve worked with several brokers/agents over the years buying and selling property. Kim truly stands out. She is extremely well prepared, knows the market, and is the most engaged and pro active agent weve ever dealt with. Her recommendations were spot on and her anticipation of offers was 100% accurate. Much to our pleasure! Highly recommend hiring her.

It was such a pleasure working with Kim and her team. She patiently and professionally navigated us through difficult decisions, ultimately helping us land our dream home. She remained on the ready with insightful questions to guide our journey. Her team ensured the entire transaction went smoothly. Kim also helped us navigate through rentback and transitioning into renovations. We are so grateful for Kim and her team!

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!

Kim was recommended by my brother, a real estate broker in San Diego. She was a delight to work with, easing the purchase of a tax deferred exchange. She is organized, responsive and knowledgeable. When a snag in the purchase arouse, she creatively negotiated a solution with the seller. Inspections of the property went seamlessly using resources she had. Additionally, she has a decorators sense with suggestions for renovations and the crew to get things done.

"I can't say enough great things about Kim! From start to finish, she made the entire process of selling our home an absolute breeze. Her extensive network of contacts ensured every aspect of the sale was handled seamlessly, from staging to marketing to negotiations. Thanks to her expertise, not only did we sell our home quickly, but we also got more than we had hoped for!What really set Kim apart was her attention to detail and genuine care for us as clients. She went above and beyond at every step, and to top it all off, she surprised us with an incredible gift at the end of the sale. It's rare to find someone so knowledgeable, professional, and kind. If you're looking for a real estate agent who will exceed your expectations, Kim is the one! Thank you Kim, my Family and I truly appreciate you."

Kim Doner is friendly, helpful, hard-working, and always available. She helped my wife and I sell our home in record time. I am more than confident in recommending her!

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!

As an out-of-state buyer, we were a little unsure as to where we wanted to purchase. Kim was very knowledgeable about the area and was able to guide us to the town/neighborhood that we now call home. Kim did an excellent job serving as the mediator with our mortgage lender and seller's agent in order to get the deal completed. Kim and her team worked very diligently to help get us into our California home in an expedited fashion.We are so grateful to have worked with Kim and her team. They are kind, responsive and very well versed with the market. We recommend using Kim and her team on your next home sale or purchase.

She does her homework, knows the market well, and works closely with you on every last detail to ensure total satisfaction. There wont be another real estate advisor for me!

We couldnt recommend Kim highly enough! My husband and I were nervous about purchasing our first home but Kim expertly helped us through the whole process. She was organized and extremely responsive the entire time, somehow making us feel like we were her only clients despite how busy she must be. We were in amazing hands with Kim and ultimately ended up with our top choice house!

Kim was a pleasure to work with! Kim put on a master class by making a difficult transaction an easy and seamless one! The property I purchased was a particularly difficult one as it was a foreclosure and the previous tenant had a reverse mortgage. Many were confused by the documentation and process, but not Kim. She did an amazing job of educating me as the buyer as well as many others along the way while remaining steadfast in the goal of handling the transaction and helping me to close before the projected date. Lauren, one of Kims staff, was punctual with documentation and communicated well to help me make sure things were completed as needed. I would definitely recommend Kim and her team for any and all real estate needs.

Kim's professional skills in negotiations, sales, and pricing were key in reaching and exceeding our goals in the sale of my family's home. Her responsive communication, paying attention to detail, and ethical values are remarkable.

After interviewing several realtors we decided to move forward with Kim Doner and boy are we glad we did! Kim is incredible and helped us navigate every step of the way. She made a difficult and complicated process very easy for us and we are so grateful for all of her help. We highly recommend working with Kim she is fantastic!

We worked with Kim to buy our forever family home in Torrance. As a Torrance local herself, she is extremely knowledgeable and helped us to narrow down the areas we were looking to purchase in.When she found the perfect property for us, she reached out to us immediately! She educated and guided us through the entire process, making this usually stressful and nerve-wracking time as easy as possible! Kim is very personable, hard-working, thoughtful and was a joy to work with. She was very well organized and timely to meet our accelerated time line. We could not have gotten everything done so smoothly without her.In addition, Kim has a fantastic network of resources from contractors, custom furniture to pool guys! She seems to have a contact for everything!Kim went above and beyond for us and we would highly recommend her to anyone. We are very grateful to have been able to work with her and would definitely work with her again in the future if given the chance.

We are beyond satisfied with our experience with Kim. She made it possible for us to sell our property in the best price considering the high interest rates. She is very thorough, systematic and methodical in her approach to selling the house. She gave great attention to every small detail in a task of selling. Aside from her impeccable selling skills she is very approachable and down to earth. She will answer your every question and she makes sure to take your calls. We had a very wonderful experience with her and recommend her to everyone who is selling their houses. You will never regret getting her services. She goes over and beyond your expectations.

Kim and her team did an amazing job helping me and my partner find a home and close escrow. She provided a thorough consultation, making it easy to understand and tackle today's market. Communication is fantastic and she's more than happy to answer any questions and give recommendations or suggestions. She's there every step of the way and follows up incredibly fast with updates and support.

Going through the experience of buying a home is a roller-coaster and stressful event. After searching for the right agent we were blessed with finding Kim Doner from COMPASS. With her knowledge and years of experience, we felt confident and equipped to make those difficult decisions. To top it off, Kim's genuine character made us feel as if we had known each other for years! She truly understood our needs and worked around the clock to ensure we reached our goal of finding our home.Buying a home in a very competitive market requires that you contract with a well seasoned agent. We needed a lot of hand holding through this process and addressed it with Kim, she made us feel comfortable and assured us that she would do her best. We reached out to her for a recommendation on a loan officer, we selected one from the list that she provided and that she had worked with previously. Our first loan officer didn't compliment our needs and back to the list we went and made contact with Eric Kari from Kinecta, this was our guy. We realized that we were assembling an All Star team so that we may have the best chance in acquiring our home. As our story goes....Our home buying journey took approximately 2 years, which is good, as we learned our wants, our needs and our budget. No such thing as budget when you're buying a home, more like "wow..... WE like that one.... we are placing an offer on that one!" Kim, settled us back to earth with comps in the areas and gave us her expert advice but always allowed us to lead the way. We requested to view several homes and even during her family vacation, time away from work, she was working with us over the phone and making sure that we had access and a chance to see our prospective home. She definitely had a firm grip on that "hand holding", as she promised. Our 2 year search for a home ended in August, as we acquired our home in the South Bay thanks to our All Star team that we assembled. She was on top of us and the seller to make...

I recently had the pleasure of working with Kimberley to purchase my new home, and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise they brought to the table. From the very beginning of our home search to the closing day, Kim demonstrated a deep understanding of the real estate market and a commitment to providing exceptional service.Kim was not only knowledgeable about the local housing market but also attentive to my specific needs and preferences. They patiently guided me through the entire process, ensuring I was well-informed and comfortable every step of the way. I appreciated their excellent communication skills, as they promptly addressed any questions or concerns I had.What stood out the most was Kim's dedication to finding the right home for me, rather than just making a quick sale. They listened to my requirements and worked diligently to find properties that met my criteria, saving me time and effort in the process.The entire home-buying journey was made smoother and more enjoyable thanks to Kim's professionalism, expertise, and genuine commitment to my satisfaction. I am now happily settled into my new home, and I have Kim to thank for making it a reality.I wholeheartedly recommend Kimberly to anyone in need of a top-notch realtor who puts their clients first. Thank you for your exceptional service!

Kim is an exceptional real estate agent. On our own journey to buy our house, we ran into many agents who could not hold a candle to Kim. The difference is apparent. She is someone who holds herself with integrity and is tenacious. There is no end to the service and level of thoughtfulness she provides. When we closed, I can tell she was genuinely happy for us and even got us some gifts. I loved working with her. She is a sharp individual and made it feel like we were her only clients (we know we were definitely not). The system she has meticulously build in her approach to new/existing clients is a key to success for all.

Kim is simply the best agent one could ask for. She exceeded all expectations and was a pleasure to work with in preparing and selling my mother's townhome. If you are considering her as your agent, don't hesitate for one minute. She is an outstanding agent, cares deeply about her clients, and has a great team around her.

Kim Doner was incredible to work with. She is personable, passionate, thoughtful, caring and made the whole process of selling out home so easy. Kim is very knowledgeable about what it takes to sell a home. Her and her team worked so hard to get everything in place and it seemed like everything fell into place so quickly and smoothly. We received multiple offers above asking in a short time due to Kims hard work and dedication. She made herself available to us through the whole process. I highly recommend Kim and her team if you are looking to buy or sell a property.

We worked with Kim on selling our newly remodeled townhome and purchasing our dream home in Rolling Hills Estates. After not having the most favorable of experiences with previous agents, Kim was a welcomed change. Kim came highly recommended by a trusted person in the industry who we had worked with several times in the past.Kim is professional, honest, and detail oriented. Kim has excellent negotiation skills, and her work ethic is second to none.Kims calm and data-driven approach to real state helped put us at ease in stressful and emotional situations that occasionally arose during the buying and selling process.Kim also has a fantastic team around her that can help with anything a new homeowner might need. From handymen to chicken coops to pool guys, Kim has a contact she can pull up in minutes.Kim is a highly talented agent we are grateful to have found her and will be using her again in the future.

Where do I start? Kim is simply the best real estate agent Ive 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 :) Ive 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.

Kim has helped us sell/buy three houses and in each instance she has provided excellent representation. She is smart, hard-working, and attentive to all the details. She is a savvy marketer who has her finger on the pulse of the market and knows how to position your house for maximum value. She does an amazing job helping you make your house look the best it possibly can. If you are looking for a home to buy, she has a vast network of listings and will help you find the place that is right for you. She is a firm, but fair negotiator and will make sure no one is taking advantage of you and you get a fair deal. I cannot recommend her more highly. If you choose to enlist her services, you will not be disappointed!

Kim did an amazing job helping us sell our home. Her team made our home look fantastic, and we are happy with the price it brought on the market. Highly recommend.

In the insanity of the real estate market, Kim is the steady hand that will guide you and help you in purchasing your next home! Kim will walk you through the home buying process and not only was she super patient, answering any and all questions you had, but she would get back to you quickly, and her team was also on top of everything from beginning to end. Kim would always send us any properties she felt would fit our budget, and we are so glad that she was on our side. She is the best of the best. Do not hesitate to use her for your next home purchase. Youll be glad you did.

We worked with Kim for both, buying a new home and selling our existing home. She is extremely knowledgeable. Thanks to her efforts we were able to secure the house despite multiple offers. Based on her advice we were able to sell our property at an excellent price. She has excellent local references which proved very useful to us. She is very professional to work with and kept us up to date on all the developments. We would recommend her 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!

Kim Doner is an exceptional real estate agent that worked with us constantly over a period of time, never giving up and in the end was successful in getting our offer excepted over a number of others. She goes above and beyond the call of duty for her clients, is always professional and responsive and is well versed in all aspects of real estate. She was truly a pleasure to work with and I would recommend her to anyone. She is the best of the best!

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

I am moving from New York City and Kim was a huge help. Not only did she spend time getting me acquainted with the area , she listened to my preferences and showed me only relevant apartments. She was very responsive and followed up to make sure I was satisfied. I would highly recommend her.

I can't say enough about Kim Doner! From the first time we contacted her via the zillow link she responded within 3 minutes and has maintained that level of availability for the nearly 2 years we have worked with her!!! She has patiently worked with us to find the perfect home -- previewing homes for us and taking videos/photos for us when we couldn't get there in person. She was never impatient. Never put off by our volume of questions, emails, texts, or calls. Her professionalism and work ethic are without compare. She is an expert negotiator and advocate for her clients. She fought for us every step of the way, scheduled everything, followed up with us & kept us in the loop (so important for me). She guided us through the purchase of our new home and sale of our old one. To say we were probably one of her more high maintenance clients would be fair. And yet she NEVER showed any frustration or exhaustion with us. She gently suggested and reiterated her professional opinion, but ultimately let us make the final decisions. I would, WITHOUT HESITATION, recommend Kim Doner to ANY BUYER OR SELLER that is lucky enough to use her services. I respect her so much. Having worked with a handful of other agents over the years I can HONESTLY say she is one in a million. Don't think twice about Kim. Call her and work with her for one week. If you aren't convinced even after the first day I'll eat my hat!!

Kim was very professional and at the same time very friendly. We felt like she dedicated all her time to solve our issues and answer our questions. Negotiated on our behalf what should be paid by seller. Communicated with the seller agent to find answers to our questions regarding the apartment. Communicated with HOA on our behalf. Even after the sell was finalized she continues to help us with some issues we have regarding internet installation.

Kim Doner has established herself as the consumate professional in her industry. Much more than her knowledge of the local market conditions, she distinguishes herself with an impressive base of knowledge, persistence, and accumen, qualities generally in short supply. A most pleasant surprise, and one of the very few business professionals in any industry who I would recommend without hesitation.

Kim, was an absolute gem to work with. I never had to stress or worry if things were all in order. Kim's attention to detail and dedication to the sell of my home was outstanding. I would recommend her to anyone!

I had a great experience working with Kim on my home purchase. During the home search process, Kim pulled out all the stops, making sure that I was aware of all the available homes and new listings that met my criteria. It helped a lot that Kim is very familiar with my area and also knows all the various real estate agents that work the area. Once I picked the home I wanted, Kim had great advice for me on how to bid strategically. My home had several offers on it. I won the bid with Kim's great advice. During the closing process Kim was very helpful in coordinating all the various steps that would have otherwise drove me insane. I didn't have to call all the different parties, escrow officers, loan officers, etc. when I had questions. I just called Kim and she got me answers back very quickly.
