Properties that need work are moving faster than those that don’t, according to Bryce Richardson, president of commercial sales at Brick Real Estate in Faulkner County, Arkansas, ...
First-time buyers in Conway, Arkansas, are running out of options, and the problem is more structural than cyclical. The forces squeezing entry-level buyers are not temporary, and buyers hoping conditions will ease soon may be waiting a long time.
