From W-2 to “Dispo Queen”: How Kristie DeLouise Made $35K on a Crystal Beach SubTo Deal

Host Justin Tuminowski sits down with Kristie DeLouise to unpack how a former JP Morgan W-2 earner became a creative-finance deal architect—making ~$35,000 by monetizing the same Crystal Beach, TX subject-to Airbnb three different ways. Kristie shares how she and husband John Matland moved from NY to South Florida for “climate & cash flow,” picked up five doors in a year, and then engineered a Texas win: direct-to-agent on Lobster Ave, navigating Hurricane Beryl jitters, a buyer backing out, enforcing a non-refundable EMD, re-marketing through the slow summer seasonality, and ultimately reselling as a subto-of-a-subto to an operator planning a pickleball resort—with private money partners and Gator gap funding.
