Steve is a wonderful buyer’s agent. He always took the time to explain the important details of the buying process and the contract.

I’m very happy with my new home! Susan Bandy

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.
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. We’re very happy with how it all turned out! With our appreciation, Olive and Thomas Holmes
Thank you so much for helping us learn about the home buying process and going house hunting with us! Kathy, thank you for all of your hard work getting the financing in place for us. Steve, thank you for all of your “first-time homebuyer” advice – we needed it. Thank you both for helping us get our dream cabin in the wood!
Steve and Kathy, You sure made the home buying process fun and doable. Thanks for all your positivity and expertise in getting it to happen! Sincerely, Jean Hess
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… Read more
I’m sitting here in my new home we’re all moved in, and I can believe how easy this was for me and my family. I first heard about Steve and Kathy from one of my co-workers. He had mentioned he was a first time home buyer and how he was getting ready to move into his new house over the weekend. I asked him a few questions about his experience. He simply stated when you are ready and would like to work with a professional; there is a person who you should meet. He handed me Steve’s card, and the n… Read more
