We have known Jim & Donna Klinge for over a dozen years, having met them in Carlsbad where our children went to the same school. As long time North County residents, it was a no- brainer for us to have the Klinges be our eyes and ears for San Diego real estate in general and North County in particular. As my military career caused our family to move all over the country and overseas to Asia, Europe and the Pacific, we trusted Jim and Donna to help keep our house in Carlsbad rented with reliable and respectful tenants for over 10 years.
Naturally, when the time came to sell our beloved Carlsbad home to pursue a rural lifestyle in retirement out of California, we could think of no better team to represent us than Jim and Donna. They immediately went to work to update our house built in 2004 to current-day standards and trends — in 2 short months they transformed it into a literal modern-day masterpiece. We trusted their judgement implicitly and followed 100% of their recommended changes. When our house finally came on the market, there was a blizzard of serious interest, we had multiple offers by the third day and it sold in just 5 days after a frenzied bidding war for 20% above our asking price! The investment we made in upgrades recommended by Jim and Donna yielded a 4-fold return, in the process setting a new high water mark for a house sold in our community.
In our view, there are no better real estate professionals in all of San Diego than Jim and Donna Klinge. Buying or selling, you must run and beg Jim and Donna Klinge to represent you! Our family will never forget Jim, Donna, and their whole team at Compass — we are forever grateful to them.
Good stuff! Who doesn’t want new construction near the beach?
69 units on that lot is obscene. I don’t like the look of Nantucket, but at least the comps are great and they’re not that bad. It’s almost surreal how close together and big they are, but it’s all good.
However, why can’t they do the same on the Ashbury lot? Or at least try to make it similar to the Leucadia Oaks development.
69 units is just too much and this whole “low-income housing/density bonus” scheme should be ended today. Developers get away with building absurdly dense developments and then you get the “low-income” part, which doesn’t help property values.
I just have a feeling the quality isn’t going to be that great. And the traffic? They’re not getting onto Ashbury or the dirt road, no my friends, all 69 units worth of traffic is going one way: out to Vulcan. At least to get to my house you can go on the dirt road and then up Hillcrest….because Vulcan is going to be a nightmare.
Put some big bombers in….they look better and, as previous video shows, there is a good market in the 1-1.4 -ish range.
C’mon Shea!
Echo profhoff — good stuff.
The real JtR skill that Richard needs to develop is to be able to safely drive while videoing. For sure if I tried what JtR does, I’d have killed many pedestrians by now, and probably sideswiped a lot of cars as well.
JtR has amazing situational awareness — and apparently eyes in the back of his head.
LEUCADIA is the best place to invest for a 10 year hold. So much positive change coming to the area. 200 million dollar hotel, complete new 101 with roundabouts, and major gentrification.
Where is the 200 million dollar hotel going? Isn’t that north of the lagoon in Carlsbad/Poinsettia?
We hope to move there someday! Love the videos Jim!
Not a bad video. However, there were no ice cream trucks, jet aircraft overhead, or classic cars shown.
CV Owner, are you lurking? What did you think of 6909 Waters End that just hit? Meanwhile, Red Coral is coming down $10k at a time!
