Arkansas’s Buy-Side Real Estate Market: Q2 2026 Analysis

Market Snapshot: Q2 2026

Arkansas's active inventory held essentially flat through Q2 2026, with listings near 18,700 across all three months and closing the quarter at 18,746 in June. Months of supply moved from 4.3 in April to 4.6 in May and 4.7 by June, a modest seasonal rise that kept the state in balanced market territory throughout the quarter. The supply scale provides useful context: below 4 months typically signals a seller's market, where demand tends to exceed available inventory; the 4 to 6 month range is where buyers and sellers hold relatively comparable leverage; above 6 months, conditions tend to favor buyers. Arkansas's Q2 reading held within the balanced band for all three months, finishing June toward the midpoint of that range.

Median sale prices rose steadily across the quarter, climbing from $270K in April to $279K in May and reaching $284K in June. Days on market held near 53 through April and May before ticking to 54 in June, effectively flat throughout.

Compared to Q2 2025, Arkansas's supply picture tracked closely to the prior year. Months of supply finished June 2026 at 4.7, just 0.2 months above the June 2025 reading of 4.5. Active inventory grew 5.6% year over year, a real expansion that added listings without moving the state out of balanced territory. Median prices rose 2.1% from June 2025, and days on market extended by 1 day. Both quarters remained within a similar supply range throughout, with Arkansas maintaining its measured, accessible-market character from one year to the next.

Top 25 Buyer's Agents and Teams: Q2 2026 Rankings

Agent Pronto/CINC has ranked Arkansas's top 25 buyer's agents and teams based on total transaction volume in Q2 2026. This proprietary buy-side data reveals both high-volume operators and market specialists who dominate Arkansas's diverse real estate market.

What the Data Shows

Arkansas's Q2 2026 top 25 centers heavily on Little Rock and its adjacent western neighborhoods, with secondary concentrations in the state's two major lake recreation markets and the fast-growing northwest Arkansas corridor anchored by Bentonville and Rogers. Little Rock accounts for the largest share of activity by both agent count and transaction volume. Lake communities around Greers Ferry Lake near Heber Springs and the Hot Springs area generate a smaller but distinct cluster of agents working higher-priced recreational and waterfront properties. Northwest Arkansas, fueled by the region's ongoing economic expansion, contributes a handful of entries working at price points above the statewide median.

The Little Rock cluster dominates the top 25 in both closing count and geographic reach. Debbie Teague leads all agents and teams with 11 closings at a $575K median, working primarily in west Little Rock's higher-value neighborhoods. Kerry Ellison added 12 closings at a $342K median across more accessible west Little Rock addresses. Casey Jones closed 5 transactions in the Heights area of Little Rock, reaching rank 2 through a smaller count at a higher price point. Dana Patterson-Sims and Conley Golden each closed 5 transactions in the $645K-$895K range within the same corridor. Emily McCarty contributed 7 closings at a $725K median in the Heights and adjacent neighborhoods. The west Little Rock zip code anchoring the Chenal area appears repeatedly in the top transaction records, with multiple agents each reporting a closing on Sologne Circle during Q2, pointing to a high-value residential development that generated concentrated buy-side activity in a single quarter.

Two lake recreation markets produce distinct clusters in the rankings. Mark McKenzie closed 4 transactions at a $792K median in Heber Springs, where Greers Ferry Lake drives a market for higher-priced recreational and waterfront properties well above the state median. In Hot Springs, George Dooley added 2 closings at a $1.3M median, among the quarter's highest individual medians in the top 25. These agents and teams demonstrate that Arkansas's lake markets generate transaction prices that allow specialists to reach the top 25 on a fraction of the closing count that volume operators in Little Rock's more accessible neighborhoods require.

Northwest Arkansas contributes two notable entries that illustrate the range of the state's buy-side activity. Amanda Gainey reached rank 11 through a single closing in Gentry at $3.5M, the highest individual sale price in Arkansas's Q2 top 25, illustrating how the Bentonville region's growth has introduced high-value outlier transactions to a state where most top-25 medians fall well below $1M. Jake Fowler reached rank 21 through one closing at $2.8M in Mena, in the Ouachita Mountain foothills, adding another single-transaction entry to the rankings. At the opposite end, Patrick Beam reached rank 8 with 17 closings at a $255K median, and Lola Philpott closed 11 transactions at $200K, both working Arkansas's most accessible price segments.

Median prices across the full top 25 run from $200K to $3.5M, and closing counts from 1 to 17. With only 4 of 25 agents and teams carrying medians above $1M, Arkansas's top 25 is among the most volume-driven and accessible in the national dataset. Dollar-volume bias still shapes the rankings: Amanda Gainey's single $3.5M closing placed her at rank 11, above agents and teams who closed 8 or more transactions during the quarter. As with all dollar-volume rankings, the top 25 reflects the high-producing segment of Arkansas's buyer's agent and team landscape rather than its full cross-section. 

Conclusion

Arkansas's Q2 2026 market tracked closely to the prior year: balanced supply, inventory modestly higher, prices up 2.1%, and days on market nearly unchanged. The top 25 buyer's agents and teams who performed within that market reflect a state with a dominant urban core in Little Rock, a pair of lake recreation markets that generate disproportionate transaction values per closing, and a growing northwest Arkansas corridor whose economic momentum is producing high-value outlier sales. Agent Pronto/CINC's Q2 2026 rankings capture the full range of that geography across Arkansas's active buyer's agent and team landscape.
