COASTAL REALTY SERVICES SALES AGENTS

Monica Hamil

In 2021, I relocated from Texas to the Emerald Coast, seeking a change of lifestyle and scenery. Four years later, Fort Walton Beach truly feels like home, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to help others put down roots here as well.

Before real estate, I spent nearly a decade in Social Work after earning my degree in 2011, followed by several years in financial management and economic development. Collaboration has always motivated me—working with others to achieve positive outcomes is what excites me most! That background aligns seamlessly with the relationship-driven nature of real estate.

Today, I’m proud to serve the Fort Walton Beach community and help clients navigate buying, selling, or investing along the Emerald Coast. Whether you’re starting fresh or settling in, we can make your dreams come true!

Tiffany Celano

I was born and raised right here on the beautiful Emerald Coast, and I’m proud to call this area home. With years of experience in Okaloosa County and the surrounding areas—both as a business owner and as a real estate agent—I’ve developed a deep understanding of our local market and what makes this community so special.

I truly love helping people, and I take pride in advocating for my clients to ensure they get the very best deal possible when buying or selling their home. My goal is to make your home dreams come true while keeping the process smooth, stress-free, and even fun!

If you’re ready to find your perfect home along the Emerald Coast, I’d love to help you get started!

Bill Avery

After relocating from Chicago in 2003, I’ve called Florida’s Emerald Coast home for over 20 years. As a longtime small business owner in Fort Walton Beach, I’ve always believed in giving back to the community and helping it grow — values that now drive my work in real estate.

With deep local knowledge and a commitment to service, I guide my clients through every step of buying or selling with honesty, care, and clear communication. Whether you’re new to the area or a long-time local, my goal is to make your real estate experience smooth, successful, and even enjoyable.

Outside of real estate, you’ll find me supporting local events, connecting with community members, and enjoying the coastal lifestyle that brought me here in the first place. If you’re looking for a trusted local partner to help navigate your next move, I’m here to help every step of the way.

Becky Wilkins

In 2013, my husband and I moved here from the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, ready to embrace the beach life — and we’ve never looked back.

After a few years working at Sacred Heart Hospital, I found myself drawn to real estate. With a background in customer service, helping people through one of life’s biggest milestones felt like a natural fit. Whether you’re buying your first home, a retirement retreat, or an investment property, I’m passionate about providing great service every step of the way.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me enjoying the beach, fishing, biking the local trails, or volunteering with Food for Thought and the REC Headquarters. I also love helping visitors and locals discover everything our amazing area has to offer—and making regular trips back to Missouri to spend time with my family and grandson.

If you’re ready to find your own piece of paradise, I’d love to help!

Rhonda Stewart

After retiring from the Navy, I planted roots in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, and have proudly called it home for the past 30 years. With a strong foundation in real estate, I became licensed as both an Appraiser and Realtor before earning my Broker Associate license. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed working with buyers, sellers, investors, and builders, helping them navigate the real estate market with confidence.

Beyond real estate, I’m passionate about giving back to my community. I serve as a volunteer with the Florida Guardian Ad Litem program, advocating for children in the court system, and I am honored to act as Treasurer and Trustee for my church.

Whether you’re buying, selling, or investing, I’d love the opportunity to guide you through the process and help you achieve your real estate goals!

Tabitha Carnall

With a passion for helping others, real estate has been a natural fit for me for over 30 years. My husband and I have been married for 24 years and together for over 30, raising two wonderful daughters—one in her teens and the other a proud psychology graduate.

My experience spans over a decade in property management, along with more than 10 years managing a team of 25 real estate appraisers. I specialize in helping buyers and sellers in Navarre, Gulf Breeze, and the surrounding areas, ensuring a smooth and stress-free process. I take great pride in what I do and truly enjoy guiding my clients through each step of their real estate journey.

When I’m not working, I love spending time with my family, traveling, and loving on animals. Whether you’re searching for your forever home or ready to sell, I’d love the opportunity to help make your transition as easy as possible!

Jennifer Daniel

Though I grew up in Illinois, I’ve called Navarre home for the past 10 years. My husband and I have three amazing kids and two dogs, and we enjoy everything this beautiful area has to offer—from beach days to fresh seafood and scenic walks.

For the past eight years, I’ve been helping buyers find the perfect home for their families and guiding sellers in maximizing their investment. Patience and compassion are at the heart of my approach, and I take pride in making the real estate process as smooth and enjoyable as possible.

One of the things I love most about being a Realtor is the flexibility it gives me to stay connected with loved ones in Illinois and New Hampshire, while still being fully committed to my clients here on the Emerald Coast. Whether you’re looking for a new home or ready to sell, I’d love to help you navigate the journey!

Dawn Effler

Originally stationed here in the ‘90s, my husband and I fell in love with the Emerald Coast and purchased a home, knowing we’d return one day. When we PCSed, we moved back in 2001, which is when I began my career in real estate. For over 24 years, I’ve specialized in residential sales and property management, helping buyers, sellers, and investors navigate the local market. Now, as a Broker Associate with Coastal Realty Services, I’m dedicated to providing expert guidance and top-tier service to my clients.

When I’m not working, I love enjoying everything this beautiful area has to offer, from beach days to community events. Whether you’re searching for your dream home or the perfect investment, I’d love to help you make it a reality!

Bridget Morris

Originally from South Carolina, I’ve called the Emerald Coast home since 1988. My husband, Flynn, and I are proud parents and grandparents to a big, loving family with eight kids and ten grandchildren. Being “Mimi” and “Gigi” to my grandkids is one of my greatest joys, and I know how important it is to find the perfect place to create lasting memories.

As a Realtor since 2001, I’m passionate about helping clients find their dream homes or investment properties. I’m also committed to supporting the community through organizations like Food for Thought, RPAC, Public Policy, CAMO, and building homes for heroes with the Emerald Coast Association of Realtors.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me cheering on Clemson football, enjoying the beach, or spending quality time with my family. I’d love to help you find your perfect home!

Brenda Madrigal

I’m lucky to call the beautiful Emerald Coast my home, where I live with my two amazing kids. Family means everything to me, and I know how important it is to find the perfect place to create memories. Whether you’re looking for your first home, a space for a growing family, or the perfect spot for your furry friends, I’m here to help you every step of the way.

Beyond helping people find their dream homes, I’m passionate about guiding others toward financial growth. The Emerald Coast is full of incredible investment opportunities, and I love helping my clients navigate the market to find the right property to build their future.

When I’m not working, you’ll often find me enjoying sunsets by the water with my daughters or stopping by local karaoke spots for some fun! Helping others is at the heart of everything I do, and I can’t wait to help you find the property that fits your life and goals!

Peyton Bradley

Originally from Kentucky, I’ve been visiting Destin and 30-A since childhood, and I’ve been lucky enough to call the Emerald Coast home since 1995. After graduating from Fort Walton Beach High School, I earned a degree in Business Management from FSU and spent 15 years in banking, lending, annuities, insurance, and general management. Now, I’m bringing that experience (and a dash of Southern hospitality) to real estate, where I get to do what I love most: help people. Outside of work, you’ll find me teaching dance, spending time with my family, or soaking up nature!

Joining Coastal Realty Services feels like the perfect way to help others call this amazing place home—I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us!!

J.J. Botelho

Born and raised on the Emerald Coast, I’m a Fort Walton Beach local through and through—and a proud dad to identical twin girls, Adleigh and Harper, who keep me on my toes! Alongside being a dad, I’m a licensed Real Estate Agent and Mortgage Loan Advisor, focused on helping clients navigate the ins and outs of real estate with ease.

I prioritize quality over quantity, dedicating my time and knowledge to ensure each client feels supported from start to finish. When I’m not working with clients, I enjoy giving back to our community by serving on local Realtor association committees. Fort Walton Beach isn’t just where I live; it’s where I’m committed to making a difference, one client at a time!

Kevin Krueger

I’ve been a licensed Realtor in the area since 1988, guiding thousands of buyers and sellers to real estate success – and many keep coming back for more! I’ve had my hands full working with everyone, from first-time buyers and sellers to builders, developers, repos, flippers, and investors. Growing up in a military family, I understand the unique challenges of military moves like the back of my hand. Fun fact: I’m a big SEC football fan – Saturdays in the fall? You know where to find me! Let my 30+ years of experience tackle your real estate needs with winning results!

Sue Laushine

I first landed on the Emerald Coast with the military in 1991, and after retiring, my family and I decided we’d found our forever spot in this beautiful area. With years of local knowledge under my belt, I’ve guided all kinds of buyers and sellers—investors, builders, vacation home hunters, and even those tricky foreclosures and short sales. My real passion, though, is helping first-time buyers. There’s nothing more rewarding than matching a client with their perfect home. I dive in headfirst for every client, aiming to deliver the kind of service that keeps people coming back. Let me help you find your own slice of paradise!

Tyler Capelotti

Business Development Manager/Sales Agent

I’ve been with Coastal Realty Services since 2010, starting as Maintenance Director before becoming a licensed Sales Associate in 2012. From there, I served as a Property Manager until 2016, when I was named Director of Property Management—a role in which I helped lead the acquisition of four management companies and drove significant portfolio growth.

In July 2025, I stepped into a new role as Business Development Manager, where I’m building the department from the ground up. My focus is on expanding client relationships, strengthening community connections, and creating new growth opportunities for the Coastal team.

Raised in a military family, I’ve called the Emerald Coast home since 1994. I’m a proud UCF graduate with a degree in Criminal Justice and a deep love for this community. My wife and I are raising our three daughters here, and when I’m not working, you’ll usually find us at the beach, at gymnastics meets, or serving through our local church.

I’ve served as a Board Member for the Emerald Coast Association of Realtors (2016–2020) and have been a small group leader at Beachside Community Church since 2017. For me, real estate is all about relationships, local expertise, and a strong commitment to the people we serve.

Janet Bishop

Property Manager/Sales Agent

Raised in a military family, I finally put down roots along the beautiful Emerald Coast, graduating from Niceville High and studying music and business at NWF State College. After six years of military service, I took a detour into real estate, which turned out to be the adventure of a lifetime!

I’ve worn many hats—working for a real estate attorney, a developer, and even as a loan processor—before dedicating 16+ years to life as a Realtor and property manager. When I’m not helping clients, you’ll find me fishing, kayaking, cheering on college football, or singing in my church orchestra and choir. I’m also honored to serve as the Public Relations Officer for AmVets Post 78. It’s all about blending passion, service, and maybe just a little bit of fishing wisdom into everything I do!

Angelica Pazmino

Property Manager/Sales Agent

Bilingual and originally from Colombia, I’ve called the Emerald Coast home for over 15 years and bring 11 years of real estate know-how to the team. As a Realtor and Property Manager at Coastal Realty Services, I’m passionate about helping people settle into their own slice of paradise—and I get to work with a fantastic team!

Si hablan español, con mucho gusto los ayudaré con sus necesidades de bienes raíces, incluidas rentas, compraventa y administración de propiedades, ya sean residenciales o comerciales.

So whether you’re buying, selling, or just looking for someone to make sense of the fine print, I’m here to help every step of the way!

Steven Rodriquez

Director, Property Management/Sales Agent

Originally from Texas, I moved to the Emerald Coast in 1995 when my dad was stationed at Eglin AFB and quickly realized I’d found my forever home. I graduated from Niceville High, stayed put, and now I’m raising my own family here. Now a father of three, I enjoy my work in real estate and proudly volunteer with Coastal’s annual Relay for Life team. Whether helping clients find the perfect spot or cheering on local causes, I’m all about making life here as great for others as it’s been for me!

Kelly Goodsell

With a last name like mine, I was practically destined for real estate—thanks to my husband for that! Born and raised on the Emerald Coast, I’m lucky to be raising our two daughters here, too. I have a Bachelor’s in Business Management from UWF and started out as a recruiter in higher education, where I got to help people find their dream jobs. Now, I’m helping clients find their dream homes instead. Same mission, different address!

Community involvement is close to my heart, and I’ve organized fundraisers for causes like March of Dimes and Toys for Tots. Giving back and staying connected is my passion, just like sharing the beauty of the Emerald Coast. My own home-buying experience inspired me to become a Realtor, wanting to offer others the same level of support I received! I look forward to helping you find your perfect Emerald Coast home and building meaningful relationships along the way!

Braxton Dickerson

Originally from Oklahoma, my wife and I fell in love with the Emerald Coast after years of vacationing here and decided to make it our permanent home. I’m married to my high school sweetheart, and we welcomed our first baby girl in April 2020.

With a marketing background from Northwest Florida State College, I also serve as a local Firefighter/EMT and bring experience in residential remodeling and construction. My passion for helping people led me to obtain my real estate license, allowing me to guide clients through one of life’s biggest milestones—their homes. I love what I do and look forward to making the real estate process smooth and enjoyable for every client.

Jason Miller

I first landed on the Emerald Coast 24 years ago with the Air Force, and despite living all over the world, my heart always found its way back here. After retiring, my wife and I chose to settle in Navarre, where we’re raising our two kids and staying active in the community.

I still remember buying my first home—feeling like I was diving in with a blindfold! That experience inspired me to dig into real estate, so my clients never have to feel that way. My mission is to give you the knowledge and confidence you need to navigate buying or selling smoothly. Think of me as your ally, dedicated to making the process as seamless and stress-free as possible!

Jami Moncada

As a bilingual English-Spanish real estate agent, I fell head over heels for the Emerald Coast’s beaches and friendly faces back in 2016, so my husband and I decided to put down roots here. With a background as a professor in health psychology, I bring a unique (and calming!) perspective to real estate—think of me as your stress-free guide to buying and selling.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned pro, I’m here to make the process as smooth as a day at the beach (without the sand). Let’s find your perfect place on the Emerald Coast!

Estefania Makela

I’ve been lucky to call the Emerald Coast home since 2016. Originally from Mexico, I’m fluent in Spanish and have worn many hats—as an Air Force veteran, firefighter, and financial management guru (I know, quite the combo!). Real estate gives me the chance to use all those skills to help clients navigate buying and selling with ease. If you’re ready to make a move, I’ll make sure the journey is seamless, from start to ‘welcome home!

Kara Capelotti Hamrick

Transaction Coordinator

Originally from Mount Olive, North Carolina, I made my way to Fort Walton Beach over 15 years ago and graduated from FWBHS in 2007. I joined Coastal Realty in 2011 as a part-time office assistant and transitioned to a full-time property manager in 2012—working my way up to serve our clients with dedication.

I’m married to Hunter, and we have a son, Camden, born in 2020, as well as our energetic dog, Ziggy. When I’m not managing properties, you’ll find me soaking up the sunshine at the beach or pool—anywhere that’s far from the cold!
