The fix-and-flip playbook that worked across the Ozarks for the past several years is breaking down. Homes are sitting close to 90 days on the market and closing roughly $10,000 below list price, according to Rachel Countryman, a residential and commercial agent with eXp Realty who works across southern Missouri. With buyers demanding move-in-ready condition ...
