Many years ago, we purchased a home in Carlsbad, using a realtor that was recommended to us - Jim Klinge. Fast forward to 2025, we recently had the privilege of selling 2 homes in Carlsbad, CA and didn't hesitate to reach out to Jim and Donna Klinge of Klinge Realty Group to guide us through the sales. The transactions were very different, each with its own unique situation, opportunities and challenges. From start to finish, Donna and Jim helped navigate the pre-sale preparation, the listing, showing of the house, buyer negotiations, the final close and all of the paperwork and decisions in between. What stands out with both transactions is the professionalism of Jim and Donna (and their team), wonderful communication (timely, relevant, concise), their deep understanding of market dynamics (setting realistic expectations), their access to top-notch contractors, and last, their ability to guide us across the finish line successfully. We wouldn't hesitate to use Jim and Donna in the future and highly recommend them for anyone looking to buy or sell a property in North San Diego County.
Nice looking home…
Nice house, questionable lot. What I can’t figure out is why you titled this post Sammy.
Thanks for the PB coverage, btw. Can you leverage your influence to make the city provide better access?
The street name is Samuel.
WOW you mean i get $20k in upgrades on a $150k house but i am paying a million dollars for it…ok..how am i getting a deal…?
I’d rather pay $20k less and do my own. In most every house I’ve ever owned I’ve had to spend time and money redoing some previous owner’s “upgrade.” What’s especially annoying is having to undo an “upgrade” on an older house to put it back the way it was in the first place.
Betty Gugler, the video did state that this house is listed in the $800’s, not a million. Do you really think that this house is worth only $150K? I’m not bullish on housing, but we’ll never see the day that this house sells for $150K.
Maybe San Diego just isn’t the right place for you. Or maybe you’re gonna rent for the rest of your life.
BTW, noticed that 4773 El Mirlo sold for $1.685 million.
I’m with FRSFBuyer…there is no way that house will ever be $150k. There are crack houses in San Diego that sell for $180k.
Is $800s questionable? Sure…but I know several people who would jump on that for atleast $550k and on up.
