As a Georgia native growing up in Blackshear Georgia - a small town of 3,300 people in Southeast Georgia-I was blessed to be part of the real esate world at an early age. My mother was a Realtor for over 37 years. As a child I would watch her work and see the joy that she brought to so many people as she did whatever it took to fulfill her client's wants and dreams. She taught me that hard work and dedication to a career you love is incredibly rewarding, and said that I would meet wonderful people as I embarked on following in her footsteps. Well, she was right! I lived real estate through my mom while growing up, and saw it first-hand when I began my real estate career 19 years ago. I have met some wonderful people and life-long friends through selling real estate. I love what I do working as a highly referred Realtor in the Athens-Oconee area.
In this day and age, technology is so important when it comes to our every day lives. Consistent advances in technology bring the world to our living room at the click of a button allowing easy access to just about everything. As a Realtor, I know how instrumental technology is to the real estate industry. Whether buying a home, or selling one, technology plays an important role in our experience.
As a homegrown Georgia girl, I also see the importance of never losing site of the one-on-one customer service. That's part of who I am as a person, and as a Realtor. It's important to me to listen to my clients-to truly hear what they are saying so I can best serve their needs. That's most important to me.
Let's face it, buying or selling a home can be a great experience or it can be total stress. I opt for great experience-and that means doing whatever it takes to get the job done and done right. It's really quite simple to me...When I work with a client, whether buying, or selling, or just tire kicking, they can be sure that I am more than just a click on the compluter or a voice mail in the dark, I am their Realtor-dedicated, technologically savvy and old-school personal.
Whatever your real estate needs, please remember, my time is your time.

Alicia sold our property in 2 days! She educated us in the process of selling property, things that had to be done, things that needed to be repaired and addressing issues before it could be listed. Alicia basically held our hand through the entire process and got the sale price we were looking for. I would highly recommend Alicia in listing and selling your home. Thanks Alicia!

Wow!!! Alicia Appling knows her business. Extremely knowledgable and professional. Purchased my home with her in 2019 and sold it with her in 2021. Within 4 days from listing, there were 8 plus showings and 4 offers. All at or above list price. Super smooth process and very quick. Listing to closing in 36 days!! As a former Realtor and current mortgage professional, I definitely found my Realtor. I always strive for honesty, integrity and dedication. Alicia soars at those same qualities. She will always be my first and only call when I need real estate expertise. Thank you Alicia!!!

Alicia was great to work with throughout the whole house buying process. We were first time buyers from out of state looking for a house during a pandemic and expecting our first baby, so we needed a little extra attention to say the least. Alicia was quick to respond, very helpful in explaining all details and helping us to set up appointments with contractors, inspectors, lenders, etc.

Easiest process selling our home. Alicia is a great listener and is very well connected in the local area. She’s very knowledgeable in her field. Her word is golden. . She’s very professional but feels like an old friend with sound advice and wisdom. Everyone should have an “Alicia” on their homebuying/ selling process!

Alicia Appling is wonderful. After being in the real estate and mortgage industry years back, it was refreshing to find a realtor with the same work ethics as myself. She truely went above and beyond. She is very professional, friendly and dedicated to helping her clients. I've already sent her referrals. She is officially 'my person' for any and all real estate needs.

Alicia was fantastic in helping us find our new home in Athens. She made the entire process easy for us. We saw many houses with her, some of them several times. We always felt that she was willing to spend as much time as necessary to help us. In the end, we found an amazing house and had a great experience with Alicia. We would highly recommend her if you are looking to buy or sell a house!

Alicia did a fabulous job selling our house in Athens, after we have moved to Florida. She lined up painter, landscaper and handyman to put the house in the top shape. She promoted the house aggressively, so we got a good number of showings. We maintained good communication with her even though we are out of state. She negotiated effectively when the right buyer came along with an offer. The whole process went smoothly, thanks to her experience, local connections, and great personality. By the way, she helped us bought that house twelve years ago. We were first-time home buyers at that time, and she gave great advance on lot selection and upgrades. We were very happy with her at that time so we asked her to help selling the house. Thanks, Alicia!

I've now bought 2 homes and sold 1 thanks to Alicia's help. From both sides, she made the process so much easier than I'd ever expected. She listened to what we liked and didn't like to find us fantastic homes. Selling was great as well and I was extremely happy with how everything went. She knows her stuff in a seemingly ever changing world of real estate and knows this area better than anyone!

Alicia keep us up to the minute with every detail of the selling process and was instrumental in the negotiations between our bank and the buyer. Alicia assisted us in providing the required documents to complete the transaction without any issues. We will use Alicia as an agent for the purchase of our next home.
