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.
Wanna bet he takes full advantage of the Williams Act property tax break?
Williamson Act. Darned autocorrect.
Folks can use this to show the millennial’s the way a lot of southern California looked in the early seventies.
Now only the guys who had a big hand in making it not look like southern California in early seventies get to have a place where it looks like southern California in the early seventies.
Because that’s how we roll out here in New Brazil, son.
Why, I remembers the day there weren’t no river rafts doin’ trade down the ol’ Santa Ana after the rains, neither! That’s cuz there weren’t hardly no tents by the riverside! Ain’t nothin’ but open service road along ol’ mizz Santa Ana back then, I tell you what! Ain’t nobody could tell you what a co-operative tent collective was! We didn’t know nuthin’ nohow! Ain’t no reason to!
