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.
I think we all deserve a “Mulligan” on 2020. Wake me up in time for Thanksgiving and Black Friday. Oh, wait. Those are cancelled. black Friday forever possibly.
@Rob_Dawg
one of very few upsides to the Plague of 2020: no more Black Friday…..
Thanksgiving, though? ehhhhhhh……..it took many years, but recently my family was starting to see the light on going out rather than cooking for 20. so, no turkey on the table this year but no restaurant to go to either? call it a wash.
We are blessed with enough family and physically close enough that it is usually a trifecta. An extended arrival before to cook and then the big dinner and maybe a late nosh or early breakfast in smaller groups.
We love hosting 24+. Not a burden. When the restrictions are over consider this an invite. 4-6 more is nothing.
@Rob_Dawg
hey thanks for the invite!
