We only put our name next to professionals we'd personally call if it were our own home on the line.
The Bolivar Peninsula is a community, not just a market. The people who thrive here — homeowners, investors, guests — succeed when they're surrounded by professionals who genuinely know this coast. These are the local partners we trust with our homeowners and our guests.
Kindred Design Co. is led by Julie Caldeira, an interior designer who specializes in transforming short-term rentals into high-performing vacation properties. Based in Austin, Julie works with owners worldwide through her virtual design services, bringing a guest-centric approach grounded in real investor experience — she and her family own multiple STRs themselves.
Their three signature services — Design Audit, Design Refresh, and Full Design — meet owners at any stage of their journey. They're the team we recommend when an owner wants to elevate their property's performance through design engineered for bookings and ROI.
Crystal Beach Realtors One10 Realty Group is widely recognized as one of the strongest real estate teams on the Bolivar Peninsula. Led by Beth Boles Terminella and Mark D. DeSantis, the team brings deep local knowledge, market strategy, and a track record of results to every transaction. They specialize in beach homes, vacation rentals, and investment properties — and they understand the coastal market in a way that only comes from years of actually being here.
Backed by the global reach and technology of eXp Realty, their listings receive maximum market exposure. Their client-first approach, built on transparency and data-driven insight, makes them the team we confidently refer when homeowners and investors ask us for a real estate recommendation.
Together we host quarterly educational sessions for property owners and investors — covering real estate trends and vacation rental performance specific to the Bolivar Peninsula.
Clients receive real estate market analysis from One10 alongside vacation rental performance data from us — the clearest picture of both markets available locally.
Buyers working with One10 get direct access to our management team from day one. Our homeowners who need a realtor get referred to Beth and Mark with full confidence.
Prospective buyers get real rental performance data before they close — not projections, but actual RevPAR, ADR, and occupancy from comparable properties in our portfolio.
Stephanie Johnston leads The Johnston Team at SFMC Home Lending, combining decades of lending experience with real-world investor insight. As an owner of multiple short-term rental properties — many on the Bolivar Peninsula — she understands investment strategy firsthand, not just from a lender's desk.
Ranked Top 5 Loan Officers in Texas and Top 175 Nationwide for 2025, Stephanie helps clients structure smart financing solutions across primary homes, second homes, and investment properties — designed to support both immediate goals and long-term growth. She's the person we refer when a homeowner or investor needs to get the financing side right.
We're selective about who we recommend. As we formalize relationships with other trusted local professionals, they'll appear here.
We're selective — but we're always open to a conversation with professionals who share our standards and commitment to this community.
