"I had a nightmare of a deal with a bank who lied and the other brokerage firm lied repeatedly. Because of the non transparency and the never ending misinformation my escrow was pushed three times. Because of all this and there is way more Katie was professional and went to bat for me making sure that I was protected and all the proper paperwork was filed including a demand to perform that was filed. If I had not had such a good strong person to stand beside me it would have potentially been a deal gone bad. And certainly would not have closed at all. I would have had to Go back on the market. So what I am trying to say is that Katie was truly a savior here. She handled it all with poise and grace and professionalism. I am so grateful to her and her persistence and knowledge of this industry. I strongly recommend her. She knows her stuff."

About Katie

Katie Dorr | OC Realtor® | Certified Divorce Real Estate Specialist®

Born and raised in Southern California, I understand what makes Orange County such a special place to call home. After growing up in Phillips Ranch, I made Newport Beach home more than 14 years ago while raising my daughter, and today I remain deeply connected to the community I love.

As a proud member of the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce and a founding member of the Newport Coast Rotary Club, I believe real estate is about far more than buying and selling homes it's about serving the people and neighborhoods that make our community exceptional.

With nearly 30 years of experience spanning escrow, title, mortgage financing, and residential real estate, I offer clients a level of knowledge that extends well beyond the transaction itself. My background allows me to anticipate challenges, explain complex situations with confidence, and guide clients through every step with clarity and professionalism.

My greatest passion is helping individuals and families navigate one of life's most difficult transitions as a Certified Divorce Real Estate Specialist®. Divorce is emotional, overwhelming, and often financially complex. My role is to provide clarity, education, and a calm, strategic approach so my clients can make informed decisions with confidence. Whether they're determining whether to keep or sell a home, understanding equity and financing options, or coordinating with attorneys, mediators, and financial professionals, I serve as a trusted advocate focused on protecting both their financial future and their peace of mind.

Locally, I specialize in Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, and the surrounding Orange County coastal communities. I love showcasing everything our area has to offer—from hidden beaches and neighborhood coffee shops to waterfront living and the unique lifestyle that makes living here so special. My goal is not simply to help clients purchase a home, but to help them find the community that truly fits their lives.

When I'm not working with clients, you'll most likely find me riding my bike along the Newport Beach boardwalk, paddleboarding through the Back Bay, enjoying beach days with friends, discovering local coffee shops, or cheering on the people I love. Community has always been at the center of my life, and I bring that same genuine care and dedication to every client relationship.

Whether you're navigating a divorce, preparing to buy your first home, selling a luxury property, or simply looking for trusted local guidance, my commitment is simple: to provide expert advice, honest communication, and an exceptional experience from beginning to end.

Real estate is more than my profession it's my opportunity to help people move confidently into the next chapter of their lives.
