Current Home: Catalua, GA

Beach House Hunting In: Panama City Beach, FL

Maddie and Caleb are a high-energy couple who thrive in chaos, but are ready for a place where they can finally slow things down in. Maddie is an ER nurse who’s spent the last six years in the trauma bay and is now finishing her nurse practitioner degree, while Caleb is a military veteran-turned-firefighter. Their day-to-day lives are fast, intense, and unpredictable, they are used to pressure, quick decisions...and a whole lot of adrenaline, which is exactly why they’re craving a calm retreat by the beach.

Originally, the two were set up by a mutual friend on a blind date for a military ball, and from the start, it just clicked. They are equally opinionated and not afraid to speak their minds. When it comes to home buying Maddie tends to lead with emotion and excitement, while Caleb is more analytical and measured in his approach. He’s even been known to bring his own ladder, measuring tape, and flashlight on home tours. He’ll maneuver into crawl spaces and jump into attics to make sure he knows every inch of the home he’s going to purchase...

Now, with a baby on the way, everything is starting to shift, and the couple really wants their beach home. Panama City Beach has always been more than just a getaway, it is where both of their families have come together over the years and where some of their favorite memories were made. For Caleb, the idea of creating a place where his family can gather again feels especially meaningful. But turning that dream into reality is not so simple. Between a baby on the way, demanding careers, and a budget of around $400,000, every decision carries weight. They are not just buying a beach house, they are trying to make a smart, long-term investment for their growing family. After years of running toward chaos in their careers, they are ready to build something calmer in their personal lives and can’t wait to find their beach home!
