Moving to Auburn Alabama? Start with the details that will shape your everyday life: where you’ll work, how you want to get around, the space you need, and the timing of your move.
I’m Laura Sellers, REALTOR® and Associate Broker with Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices Preferred Real Estate — the Official Real Estate Partner of the Auburn Tigers. I’ve lived in the Auburn–Opelika area since 1988 and graduated from Auburn University. I help buyers turn a long list of possibilities into a more focused home search.
Choose a home around your routine
A place that works for a football weekend may feel different when you live here year-round. Think about your usual destinations, preferred home layout, outdoor space, and maintenance needs. If a shorter commute matters, identify the specific building or work location you’ll travel to.
Use my Auburn neighborhood directory to explore communities. If you’re considering a condo or townhome, the Auburn condo directory provides another starting point. You can also compare Opelika neighborhoods.
Relocating for Auburn University
If you’re joining Auburn University as faculty or staff, tell me where you’ll be working and when you need to arrive. We can compare the locations and property types that fit your plans. Being “near campus” is only useful if the location works for your actual destination.
Visit my Auburn University relocation guide and homes near Auburn University page for more focused guidance.
Plan your search before your visit
Before arranging showings, let’s discuss your price range, purchase readiness, and must-have features. Share your travel dates and the homes that interest you so we can make the most of your time here. My home-buying guide outlines the next steps.
Get familiar with daily life
Explore the places you expect to use regularly, from grocery stores and parks to your workplace. For school information, start with Auburn City Schools and confirm the details for a specific address directly with the district. The Auburn Public Library is another useful local resource.
