Many of us count Christmas as the most wonderful time of year but, unfortunately, there are a number of crooks out there who feel the same way.

Quite often, Realtors® will get together and help with programs that benefit their communities.

In November, the National Association of Realtors® (NAR) recognized the city of Fort Smith for a program which Realtors® have been heavily involved with for a decade – the City of Fort Smith Homebuyers Assistance Program. That program – which was formed by the Crawford-Sebastian Community Development Council, the city and the Fort Smith Board of Realtors® – was put together in an attempt to help people in need of a little help.

A National Association of Realtors® (NAR) report detailing median homes prices from metropolitan areas around the nation reveals that houses can still be had for a bargain in Arkansas.
