Arkansas

Since Arkansas has some of the most affordable homes in the nation, the barrier to entry is low for SFR investors. While some markets, specifically in northwest Arkansas, like Bentonville and Lafayette, are better suited for appreciation plays, other areas can be profitable for cash flow if strategically planned.

For long-term SFR investors, Russellville is considered to be one of the better options for cash flow. Russellville is home to Arkansas Tech University, one of the state’s largest colleges, and Arkansas Nuclear One, which is the state’s only nuclear power plant.

On the other hand, the Ozark market is ideal for short-term SFR investors. Ozark brings in outdoor enthusiasts year-round and families who are looking for a small-town vibe during a vacation. Earning a 93 out of 100 AirDNA market score1, the average annual revenue is $30,600, which is up 13% YoY.

Visio Lending is Arkansas’s premier DSCR lender, requiring an MSA or approved exception. We offer flexible financing solutions to help investors scale their rental portfolios in this growing market.
