Purchased and sold a home with Drew, first he assisted us finding a home that was a perfect location and property. He found our home before it hit the market and saved us the headache of a bidding war. Once we signed the offer, he had a game plan to sell my property that sold the first 4 days on the market for an excellent price. The closing process on both properties went smoothly. Thank you Drew for making a stressful process seem easy!!
We couldn't be happier with the experience we had working with Drew! From start to finish, he made the process of selling our home smooth and stress-free. His extensive market knowledge and expertise were evident every step of the way. Not only did he secure a fantastic offer for us, but he also managed to get us $23,000 over the asking price! Drews professionalism and ease of communication made him a pleasure to work with. We felt supported and informed throughout, which really eased any concerns we had. If you're looking for a realtor who is knowledgeable, dedicated, and genuinely cares about achieving the best results for their clients, look no further. We highly recommend Drew Setzer and would work with them again in a heartbeat!
Drew is knowledgable, trustworthy, and a great communicator. His recommendations for staging and pricing my home were spot on, and his marketing strategies generated tremendous interest in my property. Within 3 days, I had eight offers, and my home sold for $22K over asking price, setting a record for my neighborhood in price / price per square foot. I would highly recommend Drew for anyone looking to buy or sell in the Richmond area and plan to use his services again when I purchase my next home.
As the owner of Transformations by Jill (professional staging company), I am always impressed with Drew's attention to detail in helping his clients prepare for the market. I am so impressed with the level of customer service he provides his clients as well as his ability to consistently break records in the neighborhoods he services. Way to go Drew and thank you for your continued support of our services.
Drew was there for me no matter how fat the house was to look at! He was patient with me and explained what he was looking for and why. He was honest even when I thought the house was right for me out of lack of patience. He found my forever home and I couldn't be happier!!!
We had been having a hard time finding a house with another realtor months leading up to us finally sitting down with Drew. It was a refreshing change of pace to actually have a consultation meeting and an actual plan going to look at houses that we were actually interested in versus just random houses around the city that we didnt want. We found the perfect house and Drew went to work being competitive to make the sale happen. Wed recommend Drew to anyone around the city without a doubt.
Drew is great. What sets Drew apart as a buyers agent? 1) Attention to details when looking at property. Drew consistently makes sure to point out positives as well as things to beware of when looking at properties. He has a real concern that his customer knows what they are buying and he?s looking out for you. 2) Drew is remarkably flexible dealing with a buyer?s crazy schedule and has a solid team to back him up in the rare case he is unable to accomodate. 3) Drew does a fantastic job proactively communicating throughout the buying process from search through closing he keeps you informed.
Drew went above and beyond while working with us. His communication was clear and timely. He was supportive and explained each step taking the time to educate us if need be. He even helped prep the house before pictures. I cannot say enough good things. The sale of the house went extremely smoothly and sold for 11% over asking price! He was invaluable in this transaction. Highly recommend!
Sold our home for 111k over asking price!!! Drew was an incredible, trustworthy, and patient realtor that worked with our family for more than 2 years to find our dream house and sell our current home. Throughout our long process Drews communication was always prompt, and he was readily available at short notice to help us tour homes that became available. His guidance and knowledge of the real estate market helped us to make informed decisions in a market that was constantly changing. He made sure homes were in good condition and would crawl under each house and explore the attics for defects. Drews selling strategies helped us to sell our home in less than 4 days for $111,000 over our asking price. We strongly recommend Drew to work with both for buying or selling a home throughout the Richmond area.
Drew is an outstanding sales professional. Bar none. We closed on our home on Capwell drive on 2/28 and Drew represented us extremely well. As long as we live in the Richmond metro area, we plan on working with Drew only. Drew knows the RVA market, very professional and personable and most of all patient! However, what most impressed my wife was his follow up which was always prompt no matter the time of day or the day of the week. Thank you Drew for all your help finding us such a beautiful home!
Drew helped me to buy my first home and it was such a streamlined process! He knows Richmond and the market very well and helped me understand what to look for! He also has so many reliable connections to help you be set up for success
Drew was absolutely fantastic and put in the extra effort to get our home closed FAST. He was great at always being available to answer all of our questions.
Drew is awesome. Rarely do you find or meet awesome and good and genuine people. Drew helped show my partner and I a lot of homes in Richmond and Chesterfield, Virginia. He knows his stuff, he knows the area very well and will help you find a great home at the right price.
Drew Setzer helped my husband and I not only buy our first home, but lateraEUR"when life had new plans for usaEUR"sell our first home. He answered all of our many questions and made us feel assured throughout the process. It was a quick process, too. The house went under contract within a couple days of being listed online. We got what we asked for, and the buyer even purchased as-in and waived the inspection. So it exceeded our expectations. I would certainly work with Drew again!

Drew helped me buy my new home. He got me every I wanted in the negotiation, and connected me with quality service people to fix any issue that came up. I would recommend Drew to anyone looking to buy or sell their home, and I will be using him again when I look to buy a new home.
Drew kept in contact with me for several years after I moved from the area and used my property as a rental. When it came time to sell, he interviewed very well and made the choice easy. He came through on everything he said he would! My home was listed on a Friday and by Tuesday we had 8 solid offers and contract was finalized & signed Wednesday morning for several thousand OVER asking! We closed quickly and smoothly. In preparing the home to sell he had many local connections to get quality work done at a fair price. I actually lived out of state at the time of selling. Drew served as my eyes and ears throughout the process. He was responsive and knowledgeable. I highly recommend Drew Setzer as a selling agent. And Im sure he is just as good for anyone looking to buy.
Drew was/is Amazing! He has an eagle eye for potential issues. He steered me away from some potential disasters. I ended up going with a new build. Drew Setzer made it painless and I am now in my perfect home. Thanks Drew
Drew Setzer helped us sell our house in less than four days. From the inital walkthrough until the day of closing, Drew walked us through every step. He helped us find contractors to fix a few items, suggested a great stager, and guided the pricing. His knowledge of the area and current market is of the main reasons we sold 10% over asking.
Bought a home. Was searching for a realtor and came across several, including Drew. One of my coworkers told me he used Drew twice, selling and buying a home, and recommended I use him. Drew made buying a home so easy for me. He was there when I called, when I texted and emailed. Was polite the whole time even when I thought that was a dumb question to ask. Helped me with every aspect of buying the home. He knew this crazy market well and we went with certain options like offering 2 grand above appraisal, knowing our offer was going to be past appraisal. I didnt know what that meant but he explained it all and was looking after my best interest. We did no inspection, as is, and he helped me look for what could be wrong with the house. Set me up with an inspector that Im hiring for peace of mind. We also offered enough to win the bid but at same time ended up saving $14k and won per the appraisal clause. My sister was looking for a home and had countless rejections but when I told her some of the things we did, she tried them and now is under contract for a home. As teachers they were getting priced out of the market but now moving soon. Drew even helped get me set up with a Mortgage company and questions about it. What was great, he wasnt trying to sell me other services, more like here is a good person I trust, call if you want. That personal, real aspect of that showed his character. Hes a family man and someone I feel I can trust. He was always respectful, knew the market and most of all knew things about a home/what to look for I would never have thought of. I will end up using him again in the future.
Drew helped me find the perfect home at a time where the market was extremely competitive. He was able to beat out a lot of other offers, ultimately securing the house! I highly recommend Drew; he?s extremely knowledgeable, friendly and professional.
We entered the market at a time when homes were selling over list days after they were listed. Thanks to Drew we were able to find the home of our dreams, in the exact neighborhood we wanted, within our budget. He helped us put together a competitive offer and walked us through every step of the process including working with the seller to make sure everything was exactly as it should be before we moved in. His relationship with qualified lenders and knowledge of the area also proved invaluable. I am confident that we would not have landed our home with a less experienced agent.
We hired Drew Setzer to help sell our home and it sold it in 2 days. He was very responsive to all our questions and helped refer to contractors for minor fixes found during the sellers home inspection. We would definitely recommend Drew if you are selling a home.
Drew Setzer went above and beyond to help us find a new home. He was patient and committed to making sure we found the perfect house. He never hesitated to look in crawl spaces, basements, or attics and point out things that could potentially be wrong. He always made time to show us new houses week after week, and when we did find our house he was a brilliant negotiator making sure we got a fair price. Drew was friendly and professional throughout the home buying process and still reaches out to see if we need anything or he can be of help. If you are looking for a home, we highly recommend Drew!
We have used Drew Setzer with The Strum Group as our realtor two times. He helped us purchase our first home in Richmond and, most recently, sell that home and purchase another. We couldnt have asked for a better realtor. He was with us all the way. He is extremely knowledgeable and guided us through the whole negotiation process ascertaining us great deals both times. He always kept our best interests in mind when advising us. He was a pleasure to work with, friendly, and personable. We would not hesitate to call on him for any future real estate needs.
I had a fantastic time working with Drew Setzer from The Strum Group. I met Drew originally in 2018 when he reached out about some homes that had sold in the neighborhood. While I wasnt ready to sell at the time, his approach and demeanor immediately put me at ease. He continued to follow up over the next two years and answered all of my many questions around the logistics of selling a house. When we were ready to sell, Drew provided really helpful guides and information on how to prepare the house for the market - early enough that we were able to do a lot of prep work well in advance. A big part of our success in selling the house was how supportive Drew was every step of the way. His contacts in home maintenance were awesome. All of the carpets were replaced in less than a week with really awesome quality and value. He recommended a stager who totally transformed the place and really allowed the house to show to prospective buyers above and beyond expectations. He ensured we had professional photographs for the listing and turned everything around incredibly quickly. We ultimately received 12+ offers and sold the house $35k over asking price with great terms. It was only on the market for a weekend. We ended up closing a week earlier than expected (in just about 3 weeks!) with every step along the way very smooth and easy. Drew had great attention to detail and the personal touch of knowing he would be there made me feel confident and secure despite all the stresses that go into buying/selling houses. I am VERY happy to recommend Drew for any real estate transactions!
As a first-time homebuyer, I entered the market with many questions and some apprehension. Drew quickly helped alleviate my fears by reassuring me with his vast knowledge and experience. His calm nature and intuitive conviction eased my mind throughout the entire process. He kept me informed, made himself available, offered pros and cons on various aspects of potential homes based on what he knew I wanted, and had many resources and experts at his fingertips. I would highly recommend his services. I have already recommended him to a family member!
Drew did a great job selling my house. When I was getting ready to sell the house, I contacted Drew and asked him what work should be done before putting the house on the market. He took a close look at the house and recommended some improvements that would help the house to sell quickly. He then contacted contractors that completed the jobs quickly and at reasonable prices. The painters he contacted actually got us a quote and got all the painting done the very same week! If we had tried to get contractors it would have more expensive and we would probably still be waiting to get the house on the market. When we did list the house, Drew was able to get us 50 showings and we had seven offers by the second day! We accepted an offer that was $21,000 over our asking price. I am sure that Drews expertise and good advise on what buyers expect when looking at houses drove the quick sale and great offers. I would definitely recommend Drew to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. In fact he helped my daughter and son-in-law purchase their first home. He worked closely with them and negotiated to get them a great price on a beautiful home.
Drew was essential to our relocation to Virginia, we couldn?t have done it without him. We knew nothing about the area or really exactly what we wanted and Drew was able to navigate all of our long distance home search over the course of several months keeping us constantly in the loop and making the most of our visits to the area. I was especially impressed with how dedicated he was to finding us exactly what we wanted and spent hours with us on single days on our short trips to town. He provided us a fantastic overview of the area and gave us a wide array of options. On a personal note, we loved that he could immediately connect with us, kept our priorities at the forefront, and was so personable. By the end of the process we feel like we have gained a friend! We appreciate you Drew! We can?t recommend him enough for any of your home buying or relocation needs! Drew is your guy!
My husband and I just bought our first home in Richmond, Virginia, and Drew Setzer was our realtor. We really lucked out! We saw a house we were interested in online and submitted a tour request, and Drew was the first realtor to respond. We checked out his reviews online and decided to move forward with him, and we are so glad we did. He did an amazing job at making us feel comfortable throughout the process and by answering all our questions. He was there every step of the way--at the inspection, the final walkthrough, closing, etc. And it honestly felt like he cared about us. He helped us know how to negotiate, had recommendations for local companies that can service/repair, offered solutions and ideas for home improvement down the road, explained terminology and processes we werent yet familiar with as first-time buyers, and so much more. Hes friendly, honest, smart, and a family man. Hes got the experience, and he will go to bat for you. Definitely go with Drew.

Drew is an amazing realtor professional. He delivered beyond our wildest imagination. He was very thorough, friendly, kind and responsive. I will certainly recommend him to all my friends for his exceptional services. My wife and appreciate Drew as a friend and resource person in the community. Thanks again Drew for being so unique.
Drew was amazing from start to finish. He helped us find the home of our dreams and we couldnt have done it without him. Drew made us feel comfortable, always responded to our calls/emails right away, and truly cared about finding us the right home for our family. We are so glad we found Drew and will be recommending him to anyone we know looking to buy a home! He truly went above and beyond for us and we are so grateful to him! Thanks Drew for everything!!! You are the absolute BEST!!!!
Drew and the entire James Strum Group were a pleasure to have help us sell and find a home. We met with Drew and gave him a listing of what we wanted in our next home and he found a home that hit the mark. He really made us feel comfortable and gave us great advise when it was time to make the offer. I would not hesitate in referring him to friends and families.
Drew is a fabulous agent. He was very responsive to what we were saying and helped to find our dream home. He is very knowledgeable of the area. Great agent and great all-around guy!!!
Drew was an absolute pleasure to work with! He was very detailed and precise with his information in which was required for a smooth transaction on the sale of my first home. Drew made me feel like I was his top priority and that gave me a sense of comfort with every decision made. He is also not afraid to roll up his sleeves, get a little sweaty and do what it takes to get the job done! This quality client care can be hard to find but Drew?s integrity carries in everything he does. Drew will not disappoint you!
Drew was able to advise me on a competitive offer on a home in the fan. It is a tight market and there were multiple offers; however, we got the house I wanted without spending too much. Drew was able to get contractors in within 48 hrs of inspection to quickly negotiate a dramatic drop in price. He was nice enough to even get me some house warming gifts, and follow up after closing on the house. I would definitely use Drew again on any other real estate deals.
Drew helped my wife and I purchase our first home. He was patient, thorough, and had excellent attention to detail. We were not financially ready to buy when we first met Drew, but when we met our goals, he was ready and helpful setting up our search and considerations. He worked with us scheduling visits, which was no easy task given my wifes hectic nursing schedule and my commitments at work and at church. He caught little details such as listings that used alternative names for the schools we wanted to be near, which could have cost us opportunities at houses we wanted to look at. He even sought to secure homes that were not on the market yet, keeping us from undesirable bidding wars in an aggressive market. He also shared his experience with kitchen remodeling and other potential home improvements that we considered that helped us find the home we really wanted and not just a house.
Drew took the time to become familiar with what me and my husband were looking for. And he was always available to us at any time of the day which made working with Drew a pleasure. I can?t thank him enough with helping us find a newly built move-in ready home in just a week.
