"I feel incredibly fortunate to have had Dori as my real estate agent. Her professionalism is unmatched, setting a standard that few can reach. There's truly no one else I'd trust for such important transactions. Having worked with Dori on three separate occasions, I can say without hesitation that she's not only the best realtor I've ever worked with, but also a remarkable person. Her dedication goes beyond the transaction-she treats every deal as if it were her own and always puts my interests first. In Florida, Dori McKearn is the only choice. She has navigated all of my real estate dealings with grace, persistence, and an unwavering attention to detail. From expertly handling complex negotiations to ensuring top dollar for every aspect of the sale, including the home's contents, Dori simply excels in every facet. She truly does it all, and I couldn't be more grateful." - Bill B.

"Dori’s approach to selling a home is very front loaded. We first spent a good deal of time working closely to determine the right price. After that we agreed on a plan to present our home in the best possible way. Here Dori’s assistance was extremely helpful. She gave us interior design suggestions and personally conducted a simple but very effective staging of the home. We were individually interviewed to gather our thoughts and experiences on what living here was actually like, so as to capture the total appeal and benefits of not just the property but of the community and total lifestyle. Dori then captured these things with excellent photography. The entire package ended up being beautifully represented in our MLS listing. We had an accepted offer in a little over 24 hours. Dori is very genuine and highly competent and I have already recommended her to others." - Michael K. PH.D.

"I am a banking executive with over 35 years’ experience in residential lending. I decided to purchase a second home and Dori was the seller’s agent. She was instrumental in assisting with the negotiations which were not easy. Her professional behavior and demeanor kept everyone at the table with positive results. She stayed connected after the closing and personally made sure items agreed upon where resolved. I trust Dori and have no reservations in recommending her highly." - Carmen V.

INTERNATIONAL

"Definitely a 5-star service and that's because we can't go even higher! Dori is a very professional real estate agent, making sure that you are buying the right house for your needs and at the right price. Not only she is your realtor, but she will also become your friend. In my case, French citizen relocating to Florida from Indiana, I didn't know the Palm Beach area at all when I moved in and it was my first home-purchase in the US so I needed some guidance. Dori was perfect in that role, with a lot of experience with international buyers/sellers. She is also very patient!!. She will listen carefully to your wish list, adjust herself if you change your mind, work around your schedule for visits. I have been living in my new house for 7 months now and it is the perfect fit for me. You will not regret the purchase of your house and you will not regret choosing Dori to help you! Highly recommended! " - Yann P.

"I was recently widowed and have no relatives in Florida to assist me with the sale of my home and with the associated move. For many reasons, the whole undertaking seemed overwhelming, and without Dori's help I really don't know if I could have done it. We received multiple offers and ended up selling for over 99% of the list price in just over a month." - Kathy V.

SENIORS

"How would I grade Dori McKearn? I would give her an A-PLUS! She is a lovely, intelligent, conscientious, soft-spoken friend who became my realtor when I was ready to sell my condo & move to a senior residence in the Palm Beach Gardens area. I knew Dori would cover all bases & do her best to sell my condo on Singer Island. I also knew as a friend that she would help me with the psychological repercussions of this big change in my lifestyle. There were days when I felt sad & overwhelmed, wondering if I had made the right decision. Dori took me under her wing & gave me excellent advice. She wanted to make my condo attractive to buyers who wanted to live on the ocean, enjoy a fantastic view & buy a well-maintained unit where everything "worked"! She advised me to paint my walls a neutral color, organize my closets, store away personal items and all clutter, purchase new screens & remove personal items. It looked like a lovely hotel suite by the time the first showing arrived! I said to myself, "Why am I leaving?" As far as her professional qualities, I would recommend Dori in a minute! She handled every form, every legal question, & all the background Information necessary, from our first conversation to the final day of closing. I have a big smile on my face as I realize how much Dori helped me move onto this new rung on the ladder of my life. I have moved within this last week to my new residence & I feel very relaxed, very satisfied & very happy!" - Ann M.

"I am a retired business executive. I chose to work with Dori because I liked the quality of her approach to marketing and concluded that she'd work hard and persistently on our behalf. My impressions were confirmed." - Sal N.

"The only regret I have about closing is that I won't be able to talk with her anymore." - George P.

SENIOR FAMILY MEMBERS

"When my aunt became ill and could no longer live alone, I needed help selling her home and finding her an assisted living facility. Living in New Jersey and being unable to leave my mother alone, it was crucial that I find a realtor I could trust. Dori was absolutely perfect. She made this process quick and easy. Not only did she sell my aunt’s place quickly, she helped find trustworthy people to pack up, take furniture to sell on consignment, and move things into the assisted living facility. Dori communicated with me throughout the entire process. She stays in touch to see how my aunt is doing. Not only is Dori a terrific realtor, she is a compassionate, caring person who did something very difficult to do - she earned my trust and respect. I highly recommend her." - Donna S.

"After my father decided to relocate to Florida, I contacted Dori. We wanted an affordable property in a location that would enable us to regularly get together and for me to better assist him in his long term goal of thriving in his own home. Dori stepped to the plate and worked side by side with us until we found the right place" - Shane S.
