Downsizing Off-Cape Buyers
"When referred to Carole, we were not sure if we could buy on Cape Cod. After living in our Boston area home for thirty five years, we were ready to move closer to family and downsize. From the first meeting with Carole, we knew it was possible. We had confidence she would get the job done. Finding our new home was just as important to Carole as it was to us. Her extensive knowledge and skillful guidance was just what we needed. Throughout the buying process, she kept us informed on a regular basis and, immediately if there was news. She was so organized! Selling our Boston property while we looked for and then purchased our new home was stressful, but Carole helped to keep us calm and focused. We'll be forever indebted to her for her expertise and deep care."

​​ Executor of Family Estate
"It was time to sell my parents' beautiful homestead in Chatham. Making this decision was difficult and very emotional for my three sisters and me. As executor of the estate, I needed an agent that I could have complete confidence in and that I could trust. I was given Carole's name by a reliable advisor. I couldn't have received better guidance. There were challenges during the marketing of the house with family decisions, our absentee ownership and the inherent emotional challenges of the sale. During this time, Carole's patience, advocacy and thoughtful problem solving were greatly appreciated. Her professionalism kept everything moving cleanly and swiftly forward to a sale that was good for us all."

"I can't remember where she came from but thank you all for finding Carole (I like her style)"

​​ Sensitive Sale
"I must commend Carole Swartz for selling our house in The Ridge Club, Sandwich, MA. We were afraid that it could take at least one to two years to sell our house. Carole sold the house in five months. Carole worked with our family under stressful circumstances. We lost our father while in the process of selling the house. Our mother was deeply grieving. Despite all the dynamics taking place Carole remained positive and assisted my mom patiently throughout the process. Carole was available to stop by the house with any questions or concerns my mom had regarding the sale. No task was too trivial for her. And, she also had to communicate with a family member who lives overseas and one of the trustees. We all marvel at how Carole was able to successfully orchestrate the sale. Now that our house is sold we have listed Carole as our agent to sell land we own in Cape Cod. We highly recommend Carole as your agent to manage your property sale, because she is professional, tenacious and sensitive to the needs of the owner."

​​ Total Renovation of Historic Homestead
"Carole was referred to me by a mutual friend to help sell our home in East Sandwich. After three unsuccessful attempts with other Brokers I was skeptical. But, upon meeting Carole we instantly saw that she was the professional we had been looking for and knew that she would get the job done. Our home was marketed correctly and through Carole's 20+ years of experience and strong networking we were able to put our house under contract within two months! Carole is a highly experienced and motivated Cape Cod realtor. What I liked most about her was her dedication to her professionalism. She is thorough, organized and logical. She has an extraordinary talent for marketing properties as well. I would highly recommend Carole to anyone looking to buy or sell real estate on Cape Cod. She truly is the best! "

​​ International Buyer
"Carole Swartz has become the single greatest resource to us in our move to Cape Cod. We began working with her more than three years before we actually bought a home here as we were looking to relocate to the Cape from overseas. Her insight, experience, guidance, responsiveness, and extraordinary patience offset the stress and anxiety that go with an international move. Carole listened, asked questions, and took great care to understand our needs and expectations. She didn't just try to find us a home but the right one. She also connected us with a local network, including reputable legal and insurance professionals, and her after-sales support has been great. We could not be happier with the outcome: not only has she helped us secure our ideal home but we have made a lifelong friend in the process. Carole is a professional of the highest caliber and integrity. We wholeheartedly recommend Carole to anyone looking to buy or sell residential property on Cape Cod."

​​ Seller Re-located to West Coast
"Carole was the agent we chose to sell our house. Two close friends who had bought houses through her and spoke highly of her professionalism and effectiveness particularly recommended her to us. She was focused, observant, paid careful attention to details, and asked a lot of questions as we walked through the house. She gave us the kind of confidence that only many years of experience as a successful Realtor can convey to a seller. My husband and I moved across the United States shortly after signing with Kinlin Grover. She remained diligent and communicated frequently with us by phone and e-mail. She gave us sound advice and always made us feel that she was on our side and wanted the best outcome for us. In the final weeks before closing, she worked very hard to wrap up all the details in our absence, including working with our attorney and solving a number of problems that cropped up at the last minute. We were thoroughly satisfied with the completed transaction, for which we give her all the credit. Carole has our highest recommendation, and we feel very fortunate that we chose her as our agent."

Second Home Buyer
"Carole is a top notch professional in every aspect regarding a Real Estate transaction. Her straight forward approach was truly a welcome characteristic. She was always available and provided tremendous guidance as we work to find our second home. I would strongly recommend her to anyone in search of Real Estate on the Cape."

A Move From Seattle
"This was the first property I had purchased on my own--in a new area of the country for me. In a brand new, not yet completed development. I needed expert advice and I got it from Carole Swartz. She herself researched the county records regarding the new development and recommended an excellent real estate attorney to assist with all the legal steps to be taken to insure my investment was sound. Both professionals helped me every step of the way. I couldn't be happier or more appreciative of the guidance I received. J.G."
