Description
Tristan Matthews is a forward-thinking real estate advisor and entrepreneur based in Panama City Beach, Florida, with a career that reflects both grit and determination. After vacationing along the Emerald Coast for a decade, he made the move from Baltimore in 2021 to pursue real estate full-time—an industry he grew up around thanks to his family's business. Since then, he’s become a go-to resource for first-time buyers, seasoned investors and commercial clients, earning a reputation for his transparency, strategic thinking and ability to turn complex deals into smooth closings.
Before real estate, Tristan spent years leading large-scale operations in the gas utility and construction sectors, managing multimillion-dollar projects and spearheading initiatives that boosted both efficiency and profitability. That background sharpened his skills in negotiation, team leadership and financial analysis—all of which now serve his clients in a competitive real estate market. Whether he's helping a family secure a zero-down dream home days before Christmas or guiding an investor through a high-stakes commercial deal, Tristan brings a no-nonsense approach and a deep commitment to getting results.
He specializes in short-term rentals, single-family homes and investment properties, and he's particularly passionate about supporting local businesses and advocating for policies that protect the character and future of his community. A top producer at his prior brokerage and recipient of an Award of Excellence, he’s also known for inspiring those around him to aim higher.
Off the clock, Tristan enjoys hitting the gym, spending time with family, catching a beach sunset or rewatching one of his favorite movies. Like the “Rocky” quote that drives him, he believes success isn't about how hard you hit, but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.
