We just purchased a townhome in Durango and couldn’t be happier! Steve and Kathy were so helpful throughout the entire process. We live in Austin and couldn’t physically be there for the inspection, closing, etc., and they took care of everything in the most timely and professional manner creating a stress free experience. Steve got us a great deal and we couldn’t be more satisfied with the service provided. We highly recommend the Setkas if you are looking for a property in the area. They a…

“I am very thankful that I was referred to Steve. I am from Texas so finding the right property could have potentially been very stressful. He made my trips to Durango efficient and he was very patient with the ever changing qualities I was looking for in some land. This was my first real estate purchase and he explained the process very well and kept me informed at all times during the negotiation process. Probably the most important aspect of his service was his ability to negotiate with the s…

Hi Steve, We’ve been impressed with the job you have been doing for us!  We would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone we know looking for a Realtor/Broker/Mortgage Loan Originator. Your combination of skills is really an asset to buying a home.  Adelle Anderson

We absolutely love the house; it is such a great property! Thank you and Kathy for all your hard work to find us the right place! I also really appreciate the referrals to local trade persons; everyone has been super nice and are very good in their industry. I appreciate you and will be sure to pass your name along to anyone I can. See you next time we get to Durango! Christie Keith

Dear Steve and Kathy, It was quite the epic search, and your hard work paid off in the end!  Thanks very much for helping us look at properties with a discerning eye and guiding us through the financing process.

“Steve and Kathy have the patience of saints, with great determination. They were able to assist us in finding a financing option for our dream home despite great challenges. We appreciated their skill and foresight in being prepared for any obstacles that were thrown at us. Steve and Kathy are a great team and surround themselves with folks who get the job done. We will most certainly recommend them to other buyers!” Kenn, Mary and Jayne Bates

As a new home buyer I was a very nervous about buying a home. I was not exactly sure how things worked or even how to start. I was so grateful to have found Kathy and Steve, they supported me every step in buying my home. They made feel comfortable, answered all my questions and most of all they never pressured me to buy. I needed to take the time and they gave me that time. Steve would talk through the pros and cons of each property and really spend time with me. Steve and Kathy are professiona…

We purchased a home in Durango though we live in the Phoenix area. It was a wonderful experience with the Setkas. They assisted us in finding everything from inspectors, to contractors, to a mortgage. They were friendly and helpful, but most importantly to us they showed great integrity. If we were to purchase another property in Durango, we would definitely contact the Setkas first.
