Land Values in Arkansas: What to Know
Recent market data puts the median price of land in Arkansas at about $19,500 per acre. The median sale was $48,000, across 6,610 land sales in 12 months, and land took an average of 156 days to sell.
The highest prices are in the growing northwest corner and around Little Rock. Benton County, home to Bentonville, leads at about $55,100 per acre. Washington County, around Fayetteville, and Pulaski County, around Little Rock, are both at about $40,600. The lowest prices are in the pine timber country of south Arkansas, where tracts are large: Columbia County is about $2,100 per acre and Ashley County about $2,500.
Why small lots cost more per acre
Lots under 1 acre in Arkansas sold for a median of about $54,100 per acre, but only $18,000 in total. At 5 to 10 acres, land sold for an even $10,000 per acre, and above 100 acres for about $3,300. Each sale carries fixed costs like a survey and closing, and small lots near towns often have a road and power already. That is why a small lot costs more per acre than a large tract, even though the large tract costs more in total.
How to estimate what your land is worth
The best guide is what similar parcels sold for close to yours in the last year or two. Compare land of about the same size first. Then check the things buyers ask about: a legal road or easement to the land, power and water nearby, and whether the flood map puts part of it in a flood zone. Each missing item lowers the price.
