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.
This was a steal two years ago: 774 Calle Del Norte, Camarillo, CA 93010

Nice one…..3+ acres!
Don’t you think the tax assessors should send thank-you notes to sellers and/or agents?
Assessed value went from $499,486 to $2,100,000!
Not just 3 acres but a flag lot. Isn’t a flag lot usually a negative? Not here. The looong driveway ends on the hill with the property surrounded by the Las Posas Country Club golf course.
I wish I could have bought this one. More than twice the property and square feet with my same view except higher up the hill.
I expect Counties and school districts are experiencing a windfall that hopefully doesn’t get squandered.
Thanks for this article, it is very helpful to me! Way better written than other bloggers out there.
