The third quarter of 2025 marks a return to a more balanced real estate market in Northwest Arkansas. After years of rapid appreciation and tight inventory, both Benton and Washington counties are showing signs of sustainable stability, with steady home prices, moderate sales, and a maturing market structure. Median prices rose 5โ€“7% year-over-year, price per square foot reached new highs, and inventory expanded enough to give buyers more choice without tipping the market away from sellers.
