Jim met with us prior to listing – provided guidance on preparation, detailed information and stats regarding local market conditions. He was invaluable for providing contacts for repair and improvements that would provide return on investment. Our combined efforts, strategy and his attentativeness more “

Since Zillow only allows me to write 1 review per real estate transaction, per team of agents we worked with, this is going to be a super long review.Review on Jim Klinge:

Jim and Donna are the BEST of the BEST! Their knowledge, professionalism, work ethic, and devotion to their trade are unrivaled. It was refreshing to have worked with a pair of professionals who truly understand the meaning of customer service, a lost art in our opinion. Despite living over 3,000 miles away on the opposite coast, Jim and Donna were with us every step of more “

Jim found me a multi family property that we purchased as an investment (Please see my review of Donna Klinge for details on how it went). But the bottom line is this: I never would have found this property, which cash flows right out of the gate, if it weren’t for Jim pointing me toward that house. It just was not on my radar, even though I consider myself a savvy real estate troll. Jim is giving of his time, and his intelligence. And he is also transparent and truthful. And I think he is funny, which is helpful in stressful situations like RE transactions. Jim and Donna have earned every last penny they made from our deal — and in fact they deserve more. And that is why I will use them for my RE transactions the rest of my life. Thank you, Jim and Donna!

I can’t say enough about Jim and Donna. Jim got a great price for us and negotiated well. Donna walked us through escrow, handling vendors, and negotiating everything we asked for in the request for repairs. They are know exactly what they are doing and I’ve already recommended them to two other people.

I cannot imagine a better experience! Jim was our broker when my husband and I bought our first house. Jim never pressured us or glossed over anything. He was patient, knowledgeable, and helped us buy our dream home. His office was detail-oriented, always responsive and we closed in 30 days! The excellent service didn’t end when we bought our house, either, the Klinges have given us excellent and fast referrals along the way. We feel privileged to have worked with such a consummate professional and appreciate how rare this level of skill is. Jim is simply the best in the field.

Jim and his team are top flight. He knows the market better than anyone, and his team ensures the deal goes through without a hitch. There’s always something at the last minute, but you’d never know it with Jim and his crew. I’ve bought and sold houses with Jim as my agent over the years, and I wouldn’t use anyone else. Save yourself the headaches and potential costly mistakes…

Buying a house is one of the most emotional,exciting, and sometimes confusing milestones you’ll reach for in your life! Being a buyer in this market can make it even more interesting! My husband and I have been looking to buy for a year, and when the time came we wanted a realtor team that would be on our team! Being that I’m a business woman and was 7 months pregnant, I wanted, NEEDED, communication, dependability, and consistency! The Klinges went so far above and beyond …

Jim was recommended to me when I bought my first house here in the US five years ago. He and Donna explained the whole process and it was a great experience to work with them. Not surprisingly, when my company asked me to relocate my first choice was to work with them again…

BBB Business Review
An unfortunate end. RIP Seau.
The recent accident must’ve been an early attempt.
Loved watching the guy play… so sad.
Jeebus. The 8th death from the ’94 super bowl roster.
Just saw this Jim,
RIP Junior.
So sad.
Absolute tragedy. Heartbreaking for the community and his family.
Just saw a clip on ESPN of Junior’s Mom grieving for her son in front of the cameras.
Truly heart wrenching, extremely sad.
God rest your soul Junior Seau.
he was a good man. He was an inspiration to many.
Very unfortunate to hear about this.
Not to say this is the case here. But one thing that has been seldom discussed is the welfare of NFL players after they retire. Especially after the constant and repeated head trauma leading to long standing persistent problems long after the on the field glory days are over.
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/05/03/us-nfl-seau-concussions-idUSBRE84201M20120503
Yeah makes you wonder if it’s concussion or roid related. Tragedy nonetheless. The poor guy was hurting.
As a long-time Broncos fan I cursed Junior more than once as he wreaked havoc in the backfield. But he was a warrior, one of the toughest competitors I’ve ever seen, and a class guy. RIP.
“Boston researchers request Junior Seau’s brain” – http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/05/03/boston-researchers-request-junior-seaus-brain/related/
I thought of you all when I read the news last night. The most chilling aspect was the report mentioned the suicide of another former player in February who shot himself in the chest so that his brain could be examined by those Boston researchers. 😥
RIP, Junior.
