@Mark Sarte Fayetteville and Springdale are also great markets to invest in if you can find the right property. Springdale tends be a lower cost of entry to purchase properties and rents are a bit lower than the other cities. It can be a great town to buy for cash flow, and appreciation is perhaps a bit slower. Fayetteville has the University and is still the largest town in the region. It's more expensive to get into (though perhaps less expensive than Bentonville), and the rents are higher. Depending on your investment goals, both towns can be great. Feel free to reach out for more details if you like.
Thank you so much for the insight. I'm more of a buy and hold vs. appreciation. I still like to be in the middle working class neighborhoods. I like cash flow, but not at the expense of having tenants that could be harder to deal with. I tend to secrifice cash flow a little in return for longer term tenants.
Sounds like Fayetteville might be what I'd be looking for. Does that sound about right?
