| Market Commentary Provided by Blair Taylor Northwest Arkansas is currently in a strong buyers market, however, our local market should balance quicker than other markets around the U.S. This is because of our high job growth, quick reduction in new construction housing starts, and a steady population increase. The recent decision by the Fed to lower interest rates will also help buyers riding the fence to take action. |
