About Austin

Backed by over a decade of valuable experience as a Kentucky and Tennessee Realtor, particularly specializing in the Lexington and Central Kentucky areas, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a passion for real estate. While my primary focus is on residential properties, my experience also encompasses recreational lots, farms, and multi-family commercial properties. I am proud to provide exceptional service and dedication to my clients throughout Kentucky and Tennessee. My interest in real estate was sparked from a young age. As a child, while other children were playing video games, I was drawing subdivision layouts and even building houses with my Lincoln Logs. This early fascination with property development was more than just a pastime; it was the foundation of my lifelong commitment to real estate. Growing up, I was surrounded by the industry. My mother, who has been a licensed Realtor for 25+ years, often jokes about how my tasks at a very young age included carrying the keypad and ensuring all the lights were turned off during her property showings. This early exposure to real estate profoundly influenced my career choice and ignited a desire to become a Realtor®. My background in interior design has played a significant role in shaping my career as a real estate professional. Working alongside a world-renowned designer for years allowed me to collaborate with a diverse range of clients, including country music artists, professional athletes, and American diplomats. This experience honed my skills in staging homes, understanding client needs, and delivering tailored solutions that exceed expectations. Since real estate has always fascinated me, it just made sense to pursue a career in an industry I grew up around. My dedication to excellence is reflected in my numerous designations, certifications, and my status as a lifetime member of the Top Producers Club. I am proud to be recognized as a Realtor® who goes the extra mile for my clients to ensure they are taken care of and on track to achieving their real estate goals! Throughout my career, I’ve had a variety of influences that have impacted my professional development on some level. My mother has been one of the most influential figures in my career, as she served as a role model and showed me how to get started in real estate. Equally impactful was a former friend who once told me, “You’ll never make it without me." This challenging statement fueled my determination to succeed on my own. Although these two individuals inspired me in two very different ways, the results were always positive. While my mother provided guidance and encouragement, my friend's doubt spurred me on to become the well-rounded Realtor I am today. What I enjoy the most about being a Realtor® is getting to know my clients and understanding their goals and preferences. Every client's situation is unique, and I enjoy finding solutions that work best for each individual person. My attention to detail and ability to listen to my clients are what set me apart from others in the industry. The precision and detail-oriented nature of the design world has seamlessly carried over into my real estate practice, enabling me to provide top-notch service to my clients. In addition, my ability to listen, communicate, and understand my clients' needs allows me to assist them every step of the way through one of the biggest transactions of their lives. My enthusiastic approach and love for real estate ensure that I can deliver the best possible outcomes for those I work with. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer, a seasoned investor, or looking for a new place to call home, I am ready to partner with you in realizing your real estate goals. With my extensive experience, dedication, and passion, I am committed to providing you with the highest level of service and ensuring your real estate journey is smooth and successful. Let’s work together to make your real estate dreams come true!

Highly Recommend

Between the two of us, we have worked with Austin on 2 purchases, 3 property sales & in process of another sale. One was an estate/ short sale in which he made far less stressful than it could have been. He is excellent, and I couldn't see working with another agent. He works tirelessly to negotiate and help ensure you've got the best results.

Best realtor and person I have met.

Austin Polley has been the best realtor I have dealt with in over 40 years. His knowledge and grace in handling complex queries and conundrums of the process without making it seem a bother and doing it expeditiously was phenomenal. I would highly recommend using Austin as your agent his advocacy for your benefit is exceptional.

Austin found our dream home in 24 hours!

We had been house hunting for a while and were looking in TN, KY, and Va. We didn’t care which state but needed a house large enough for our family and a decent amount of land. We had met with a few agents and went to several houses and nothing worked. I had given up hope, we thought we were going to have to choose between space or land because we just couldn’t have both. We were driving to look at a house and with only a couple hours away we couldn’t get a hold of anyone to view this house(we had been trying for like 2 days). We clicked the button on Zillow to match us with an agent and thank god it matched us with Wendy and Austin. I had spoke to Wendy and she couldn’t make it at that time but Austin jumped right in and met us there in 2 hours and was also pretty late in the evening. The house ended up not working out but meeting Austin for the first time he asked us what we wanted, what we needed and location preferences. We told him, with no expectation that he would find anything. We had worked with agents in VA and TN that never sent us one single house to look at. We had been doing all the research on our own and reaching out to them to view houses. This was our first time buying and thought this was normal. That very same night he sent us a house. We looked at each other and said this is it! This is the one! We have to see it. He got us in the next morning and we fell in love! Wendy met us at the house this time and showed us around. Very knowledgeable and found answers to any questions we had. We loved it, it was perfect for our family! We left the house and made an offer that day! We met Wendy and Austin, found a house and closed all within 20 days. They made it the smoothest and fastest close as we needed something now! We really felt the love and care that they have for helping others find their happily ever after! Austin and Wendy will be our forever realtors.

A great asset to work with

This is my third purchase with Austin in the past 16 months: It started with my residential home, and then several investment properties. Austin has been key to helping me find the deals that fit my needs an expectations. We’re already making plans and strategy for my next investment property. Keep up the excellent work, Austin!

Austin was wonderful! 10/10 Recommend!

We had a wonderful experience selling our house with Austin Polley. He knew the market well and did a great job in guiding us through listing, showings, reviewing offers, and closing. Austin was always easy to communicate with- even when we messaged him with random questions at random times. He understood and prioritized our family’s needs during showings. The whole process went super smoothly! We can’t recommend him enough!
