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.
The flippers are back, and lovin’ it!

I won’t lie, that video makes me pine for the good old days of the classic 100% cynical JtR!!
Ahhh… Back in the days when Banks actually foreclosed on deadbeats. Now you’d never see an entire neighborhood like that because even if the homeowners weren’t paying their mortgage they’d still be allowed to live in and maintain the property.
The only way to get deals like that today is to work with unethical brokers/realtors and steal short sales from the bank.
One of my favorite videos. “Buddha me, baby!” LOL
The place sure cleaned up nice though!
