DOM matters because it reveals momentum.

In Conway:

  • Homes in West Conway often move fastest.

  • Move-in-ready homes across all price points show strong activity.

  • Fixers or dated homes take longer, especially if pricing is unrealistic.

  • Acreage homes vary — demand is solid, but supply is limited.

Sellers benefit most when pricing is aligned with your specific neighborhood, not citywide averages—Conway’s micro-markets behave differently.

  • Midtown: high charm, limited new supply

  • Acreage: rare inventory

  • New construction: growing options
