If you’ve been part of the Bainbridge Island community for 25 years, you likely have solid insight on what makes it tick. Even more so if your family has lived here for three generations.
That depth of knowledge – and passion for their community – is at the heart of how Lisa Paxson and Tiana Gallagher approach their work with prospective home buyers.
It’s likely also a big part of why the two Coldwell Banker Bain REALTORS’® were recently recognized by the local community as finalists for the island’s “Best Real Estate Team.” Together, their Paxson & Gallagher team brings a deep understanding of the local community, a personalized approach to real estate, and a deep cognizance for Bainbridge Island’s unique lifestyle.
“It’s an honor to be recognized,” says Gallagher, a third-generation islander with a legacy in local real estate. “This community is where we work but also where our roots are, and it’s meaningful that our neighbors value what we bring to the table.”
Paxson and Gallagher make real estate more than a transaction, focusing instead on relationship-building, trust, and a hands-on approach to helping clients navigate major life changes. “Our clients often become our friends,” Paxson shares, “and we’re fortunate to be a part of such pivotal moments in their lives.”
The team’s business started from a shared love of the island and a commitment to helping people feel at home. Paxson, a resident for over 25 years, is known for her expertise, especially for those relocating to the area. “I’ve been helping clients move to Bainbridge for years,” she says, “and I enjoy introducing new residents to all the wonderful things about the island.”
“Real estate is still about relationships,” Paxson adds, noting the human element is what’s most important.
Paxson and Gallagher’s involvement in the community extends beyond their business. Both are active in local events and fundraisers, with Gallagher participating in the Rotary Club’s annual Rotary Auction and the Bainbridge Prepares initiative.
“We believe in giving back,” Gallagher says.
Their team has even been featured on American Dream TV, promoting the culture and community of Bainbridge Island to a broader audience.
Looking ahead, Paxson & Gallagher are excited to look for new opportunities to expand their services, ensuring clients have access to the latest tools and market insights. “We’re always evolving, always looking for new ways to support our clients,” Gallagher notes.
