Meet Regan A Kitsap Life Story
Born here. Built two businesses here. Now I help families call it home.
Twenty-seven years of taking care of this island before I ever sold my first home. The reason my clients trust me isn’t my resume — it’s where the resume started.
It started with a Polaroid.
My brother and I opened Bainbridge Photo Lab — a one-hour photo shop on an island where everyone knew everyone.
We developed the wedding photos. The baby pictures. The first-day-of-school snapshots. The appraisal shots for real estate listings. The crime scene photos for Bainbridge PD.
For eleven years, we watched the life of this island pass through our front counter — one photograph at a time.
“That’s where I learned what it means to be part of a community — not just live in one.”
Then sixteen years of cleaning Western Washington.
After Photo Lab, I built Aardvark Cleaning from a one-woman operation into a team of eighteen — serving property management companies, apartment complexes, and homeowners across Western Washington.
Sixteen years walking into other people’s homes. Learning what makes a house feel like home. Learning what scares buyers off. Learning what makes a property sing.
“By the time I got my real estate license, I had already been taking care of Kitsap homes for twenty-seven years.”
Nine years. 278 homes. One mission.
When I moved into real estate, I didn’t start fresh — I brought twenty-seven years of taking care of people’s homes with me.
I know what a home looks like when someone’s outgrown it. I know how it feels when someone’s ready to let go. I know how first-time buyers second-guess themselves at 2 a.m. — and I know how to talk them through it.
Nine years at John L. Scott Poulsbo. Two hundred and seventy-eight families guided home. Every single one of them still gets my cell number.
Why community matters more than sales.
You don’t build a career like this in a place like Kitsap by chasing transactions. You build it by showing up — for the same families, the same neighborhoods, decade after decade.
