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.
Go Chargers !
looks like it was a good day for the chargers after all.
Maybe this one is getting stale and the realtors are ignoring it because its overpriced?
Yeah maybe, but the ones I was referring to are those already on the road with buyers in the car that see the signs. Do they hit their mobile apps before making a couple of turns and talk themselves out of it because they know the comps so well? I don’t think so, but maybe.
Buyers this time of year aren’t the “take me on a lavish tour of houses” type buyer. They are the “I get can a better deal going direct – I don’t need no agent” type of buyer. They’ll reluctantly get a buyer’s agent if they have to, but my guess is JTR will be getting asked to rep both sides on a variety of creative and/or low-ball offers, and kick in a couple points for the privilege. Just a hunch.
It’s why you see me on duty on the weekends!
