Jim and Donna were lifesavers for our unexpected relocation - we never would have been able to get everything done in the limited time we had without them! With Jim's insight on the real estate market and dealing with buyer expectations and with Donna and her team coordinating all the efforts to get our house of 15 years show-ready in less than 3 weeks and moving escrow along so we could smoothly transition into purchasing our new home across the country. The absolute craziest 6 weeks, I don't know how we did it all! Thank you!

Jim is the right person for all you real estate needs. He is easy to work with and knows the North County market. He also know how to best navigate this crazy market. Jim helped us successfully identify and the secure a home in a multiple offer environment. Once the offer was accepted Donna worked closely with us to successfully navigate the inspection, repair and escrow processes - they are the best!!

We've worked with Jim and Donna on multiple properties (both buying and selling) and my extended family has as well. Most recently they just helped us with a very competitive purchase, and we were extremely thankful to have them on our side. They are hyper responsive, knowledgeable and an overall pleasure to work with. I can honestly say they are the best in the business!

Where do we begin..2020 has been a year for everyone. When COVID hit and shut down both my husband and my businesses, we were left with a mortgage and very little income coming in. We were stressed, scared and felt stuck. We made the hard decision to sell our home and move out of state. We contacted the Klinges' and spent a good hour going over what we hoped we could accomplish. Jim and Donna came over with comps in hand and suggestions on improvements to get our house ready for the market. It was overwhelming to think about, but Donna was there and one step ahead in every scenario. Basically we just approved what they suggested and Donna handled literally everything. We placed our house on the market and within the first day we had multiple offers well above asking price! We couldn't believe it. We were overjoyed! Jim countered the offers to weed through them, and everyone came back with way more. It was amazing, and we are ?? sure it was because of the staging and repairs the Klinges suggested we do. Due to unforeseen dishonesty from the buyers lender, we hit a big hurdle when trying to close. We had already moved out of state and were shocked when three days before closing the lender dropped a bombshell on the buyers and us. However, Jim and Donna handled it like veterans, not afraid to play hard ball and represent their clients. After a few phone calls with us, and several between Donna and the lender, they had a plan B-Z to make sure we were taken care of. In the end we closed with even more money than we ever thought possible and with very little work from us. The Klinges handled this entire "2020" worthy event with the utmost professionalism and did everything in their power to not only make this as smooth as possible for us, but we also walked away with more money from the sale of the house than we ever hoped for. After working with Jim and Donna, you don't ever use anyone else. They are hands down the best team to represent you in any scenario.
