Before You Buy in Auburn or Opelika… Know This About the Neighbors
One thing I always tell my buyers—no matter where you’re moving—is this:
A house is important, but your neighbors are part of the package.
Every street has its own personality. Some are super social and connected — with block parties, group texts, and friendly waves every morning. Others are more private and laid-back — where you may only see your neighbors when you take the trash out.
Neither is better — just different. But it’s important to know which one suits you.
That’s why I encourage buyers to visit neighborhoods at different times of day. A quick drive-through in the morning, afternoon, and evening can tell you a lot. Watch traffic flow, see how people use their yards, and notice whether neighbors are out walking dogs or chatting in driveways.
