I highly recommend Tony and Chris as they go above and beyond for their clients in so many ways. They treated me like family and truly cared about matching me to the right house. The showing process was a breeze and so enjoyable. They knew exactly what was important to me and helped ensure I found what I wanted. When I found the perfect home, Tony helped me get contractors and appointments in place/scheduled prior to my move in date. He ensured the work was done correctly when I couldn’t be there. He communicated extremely well throughout the buying process and was so patient. Tony and Chris were trustworthy and caring. I am grateful to have had them on my house hunting journey. Highly recommend!
Working with Tony and Christine was a dream come true! I was only in town for a week from out of state and had very limited time to look for our dream property in Pagosa Springs. They listened so well to what our dream property was that they knocked it out of the park on the first property they showed us! They gave great advice and guidance throughout the entire process, gave us great contacts for every thing we needed, and answered every question we had. I’ve never had such a wonderful experience buying or selling property. I cannot recommend them enough!
We had the best experience dealing with Tony and Christine Kaufman while searching for a second home in Pagosa Springs. Being from out of state makes the process more difficult but Tony and Christine have gone over and beyond to take care of every detail and make the process smooth. They are very responsive and knowledgeable. Thanks for being our eyes and ears in Pagosa.
We were so thankful to have had Tony & Chris represent us as buyers. There are challenges with buying out-of-state, but they were always so helpful and willing to get us the answers we needed throughout the process. Their team structure works so well, for quick paperwork and more, which is important in a competitive market. And they are just nice, kind people who are easy to enjoy working with and love their town. Would highly recommend Tony & Chris as your Pagosa Springs realtor team!
We were looking for a home and was recommended to Christine Kaufman by a long time friend. The experience of buying a new home couldn’t have been better. Christine listened to our preferences and she checked off all the boxes. In one day we found the home we wanted. Her professionalism and knowledge of being a great realtor was evident. I would highly recommend her.
Tony made us feel very welcome. He set up many appts. and took us to the homes. Once we made a decision, he helped us with contracts and negotiations. A true plus is that he knows this area well and could help us navigate whatever our needs. His suggestions for contractors to work with have been excellent.
Tony and Chris are honest, professional, knowledgeable and so helpful! They know Pagosa Springs and know the best places for you to buy or sell here! They work hard and are so easy to work with! I recommend them whether you are buying or selling a home in Pagosa Springs!
Chris and Tony were so much help in finding us our retirement home in such a tough buyers market. They went above and beyond helping with all aspects from offer to closing.
I highly recommend the Kaufman’s! Chris and Tony really took it upon themselves to find me my dream home. They paid the utmost attention to the location, and also the amenities I wanted in a new home. Buying a home is normally very stressful and seems never ending, but with Chris and Tony it was very enjoyable. Let these two find you your dream home and you won’t be disappointed!

On a summer vacation the owners of Southwest Realty and Outdoors, Tony and Chris Kaufman, fell in love with Pagosa Springs, Colorado. We spent 10 days fly fishing mountain lakes and streams, hiking, mountain biking and enjoying all that downtown Pagosa Springs had to offer. We were also in town during a holiday week and we were pleasantly surprised that everything wasn’t crowded like it was where we were from in Arizona. We went back to Arizona and decided to sell our home and purchase real estate in Pagosa Springs and live in CO full time! We love to be outdoors and Colorado has plenty of opportunities to do that year round from fishing, hunting, hiking, downhill and cross country skiing, snow shoeing, snowmobiling and horseback riding! We have come to call living here our second childhood! Christine grew up in Illinois and spent many winters listening to the radio to see if school would be cancelled so she could play outside in the snow! Now she’s playing in the snow again with our three dogs!
Tony grew up in Arizona and after 57 years was ready for the change that Pagosa Springs has to offer. Our family loves to come and visit us and our grandkids recently moved here as well! We never get tired of how beautiful the San Juan Mountains are! The beauty of Colorado is hard to capture by pictures! Come see for yourself what all it has to offer. You may find that you catch the Pagosa bug and just can’t picture living anywhere else! We have met so many people that this has happened to! Just let us know when you are going to be in town because we would love to show you around!
