I have been contacted by the local pantry to organize a Food-Fuel of Life Drive. Given the position of Keller Williams Cultural Chairperson it has been brought to my attention that the local food pantries are in need of food. They are crying out for help restocking the many local pantries. A fellow agent, is a pastor a local congregation. She asked if we could team with the teen center which is to open in September. The teens will aid in the collection & distribution to the local pantries. The Food - the Fuel of Life Drive will begin Sept. 22, 2008. Non perishable groceries maybe dropped off at our Keller Williams Real Estate office located at 584 Middletown Blvd across from Macy's in the Oxford Valley Mall. Call me, Carol Swain, if you need the items picked up on Sept. 29th. 215 757-7257. Thank You for your help in advance.
Technology has advanced in every facet of life. We use technology for everything now. Do you even know anyone who does not have a cell phone? I know more people now that do not have a home phone. And with technology advancements, come home advancement. Homeowners want their home to advance as well.
The home automation industry has risen considerably in the past few years. For homeowners it is all about convenience. We want our blinds to go up instantly, and our lights to dim with the push of a button. Many vendors now are offering a package to builders, which include remote home monitoring and automation. One of these brillant vendors is offering new software that allows the user to monitor their home control system from your PDA (or any device with a web browser). The software is called WL3, it monitors your home and updates you when gates are opened, cars enter, and even when the alarm is activated or turned off. But that is not all.... You can also adjust your lights, and home's temperature. The possibilities are endless.
The future is here, now we all need to just embrace it.

We all know and love Google. It seems like you can just about do it all at Google. I know personally, I use Google, when I need to look an address or area up on a map. Google has now come out with Google Street View is now available for our websites.
Google Street View is a feature of Google Maps and Google Earth that gives you a 360 view of the of a location. It is neat. The program displays photos that have been taken by a camera mounted in a car. You can also go up and down the street by clicking on the arrows in the direction you wish to go. Photos can be viewed from different angles, in any direction or in different sizes.
Imagine owning a home with that you can turn all your lights on with a remote. That is right. And the 
technology is out there, it is called Verve Lighting. You can check it out at www.vervelivingsystems.com .
The Verve Living System eliminates wires and operates on a radio frequency network. The network transmits the radio signal wirelessly at fast speeds. This means via remote control lighting both indoor and outdoor can be controlled. The network transmitsthe radio signal wirelessly at fast speeds.
This is great news for new homes being built. Verve eliminates the need for wires, nothing is hardwired. Verve switches can be mounted almost anywhere on anything in the home. Verve switches also make it possible to lower the intensity of light in any given room with any switch or using multiple switches. This could be a huge energy saver.

"I would like to thank Carol Swain for getting our home sold in a week! Our home had been for sale previously, but did not sell. When we interviewed Carol, she was honest and upfront. Carol told us exactly what to do to get our home sold. After a week, we had not one but two offers on the home. We accepted the offer that came in over our asking price! Despite the market conditions. Thanks to all Carol's efforts and knowledge we are now retired and living in Florida. We would highly recommend Carol Swain. "
Patricia & Ronald Snyder
Well, we are all moved in and getting used to our new home. All is going very well.
I had write a note to you to let you know how much we both really appreciate all your hard work and effort during the both sales.
You and your team were really organized and professional. You handled every aspect of the sale and all the problems associated with it.
Until you go to buy or list a home, you really are not aware of how much is involved and why you need to use a very experienced realtor. We have already and will continue to recommend you and your team to everyone we know looking to list or buy a home.
Keep up the good work and please let your associates know how much we appreciate what they all did for us.
Please come and visit us in our new home.
Dorothea & Louis Williams
This serves to commend and thank you and your colleagues for a job well done. When it came time to select a realtor to sell our home, we knew it would have to be someone who is knowledgeable about the local market and the tough economic conditions. In selecting you and Keller Williams, we felt confident that you would provide good advice and do your best to sell our home. We were not disappointed. Despite our fears because of market conditions, through your efforts and others at Keller Williams, our house sold in about 45 days.
If friends are in need of a realtor, we will recommend you and the Swain Real Estate Group. Thanks again and best wishes for the future.

I have known and worked with Carol Swain for a number of years. Carol is a considerate realtor that demonstrates a great deal of professionalism and knowledge in the senior real estate market. The clients that I have referred to her have always reported a smooth and successful transaction. Carol has repeatedly gone the extra mile for her clients, even helping seniors clean out their homes and/or have moving sales. The thoughtful and personal touch she adds to all of her business dealings is truly refreshing!
Carol's years of experience allow her to handle any situation with ease. The many clients that I have referred to Carol have assured me that her honesty, experience, positive attitude, and professionalism have put them at ease and helped them make the best decision possible. I believe Carol Swain's expertise and genuine caring will make your housing dreams become a reality.

Thank you, Fred, and considerate staff for guiding me through the sale of my home. I had saved the large card from years ago with your photo, and kept it for when it was time to move. Well as you know, I moved out.So thank you for your knowledge and handling of all the necessary steps of the listing!
Here's to more Sales for The Swain Group!

Thanks again for all you have done and really for making everything so easy and smooth.Ruth Davis
I hired Carol Swain early last spring to sell my elderly parent's home in Levittown, Pa. Due to my parents age and health condition, we had to move them from their home of 40 years to live with my sister in Missouri. Their house needed a lot of work before it would be ready to sell, which my husband and I had to do from 200 miles away. We made numerous trips to Levittown, but we could not be there all the time. Carol went above and beyond the call of duty to help us with the selling of the house. She gave us needed advise, recommended carpenter's lawn service, carpet salespeople, helped in buying appliances, arranged for furnace repairs and chimney inspection, and kept a close check on the house. Carol was a great help and worked very hard to assist us and I would highly recommend her services to anyone selling or buying a house.Rebecca Gillman

If everyone could have a Carol Swain, it would be great. She is a great person and tries her best for you and is always around when you need her. She always returns calls.
Mona Freland
Carol knew the property inside and out, and promoted it immediately. Carol helped us price it so it would sell quickly!
Russel & Irene Killian
Carol was very helpful and comfortable to do business with. She made all sorts of suggestions so we could sell as quickly as possible. We hired Carol because she was a hard worker ( we noticed she had been presented many awards through newspaper articles). We would highly recommend Carol to a friend.
