Chris & Katie + Brian

Buyers: Chris & Katie - Married Couple

Current Home: Saint Mary’s, PA

Beach House Hunting In: Panama City Beach, FL

Beach Home Budget: $500,000

Katie and Chris are a fun-loving, down-to-earth couple on the hunt for their dream beach home in Panama City Beach. With a budget between $400,000 and $700,000, they’re navigating the balance between Katie’s love of high-end finishes and Chris’ budget minded approach. She jokes that she’s a little “bougie,” while he’s content in a hat and t-shirt, soaking up the sun. This couple is going to have to find that, “cheap middle ground” if they really want a beach home!

This tattooed, fun and spunky couple works in the medical field. As if their jobs weren’t demanding enough, they travel for work constantly. More often than not the two are on the road living in hotel rooms and working in hospitals. Now more than ever they want a beach sanctuary that is far away from the sad buffet of the budget motel. They want a respite from drab motel life and a taste of chic beach resort life! They want the upgrade without breaking the bank.

They envision a lifestyle centered around easy beach access, morning coffee on the patio, swimming, and taking their dogs on walks by the water. Katie dreams of a cozy, well-designed space with a beautiful master suite and outdoor living, while Chris wants something simple and relaxing with room for guests and bunk beds for visiting cousins.

Although the search has felt overwhelming online, they’re placing their trust in their agent Brian, whose sassy, upbeat energy (and TikTok fame) helps make the process feel fun. Katie and Chris hope to find a beach home that brings peace, happiness, and a fresh start.
