“As first time home buyers we had many questions and concerns. After meeting with several other agents it was obvious that Steve and his wife Kathy would be the perfect fit for us.Steve not only possessed the extensive industry knowledge to answer all our questions, but also the patience and professionalism to explain everything in great detail. Taking the time to discuss the ins and outs of the process helped put us at ease – which is exactly what was needed as first time home buyers.A local CPA recommended Steve to us. We liked the idea of him being a Buyers Agent; it just makes sense. As we got to know Steve it became obvious why he came so highly recommended. His insight into the Durango area housing market proved to be invaluable. Most of all we appreciated his confidence when viewing properties and could trust his opinion when it came time to make offers.Kathy also helped us a great deal with securing the loan – another area of expertise for the Setkas. We could not be happier with our home and the overall experience. Thank you!-Megan & TJ

Testimonials
I always appreciate how quickly you respond to questions and concerns, as well as the patience and thoroughness you bring to your responses. As important as mortgages and home financing is, it can be a difficult, and often abstract, subject to comprehend, but one you’re always good at explaining. Lee Frazer
Steve (and Kathy) were fantastic! I am from Texas and found Steve while looking for an agent. Most importantly, he knew his stuff. I have negotiated multi-million-dollar deals so I knew complexity could be a challenge. Not for Steve and Kathy. From market analysis to small details- Steve always had incredibly helpful input. He was very responsive and patient as we navigated the real estate market. We (eventually) found a great property and the closing went by smoother than I antici… 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
