How do I make an offer on commercial land in Gravette, Arkansas?

Start with a call to the listing agent, then move through the steps below in order.

  1. Inquire. Call 479-925-3333 and ask for the offering on the Highway 49 and AR-72 Corridor parcel. Ask the agent to confirm the current status of the listing.
  2. Read the offering. The listing describes 10.56 acres, offered at $3,168,000, or $300,000 per acre, on a level site with city sewer live on site.

What should I check before buying land at an interchange?

Confirm use, utilities, boundaries and access before you commit, because the listing leaves several of them for the buyer to verify.

  • Zoning and permitted use: the listing says zoning and permitted-use entitlements should be confirmed directly with the City of Gravette planning department. Treat that as the first call, because it decides whether a commercial, residential or mixed-use plan is available.
  • Sewer: the listing states city sewer is live on site. Ask the city to confirm the connection in writing and what it covers for your intended use.
  • Survey and title: order a current survey so the 10.56 acres is measured to your own standard, and review title for easements and restrictions.
  • Road plans: the listing notes an ARDOT widening study now active on the Highway 72 corridor between Gravette and I-49. Ask ARDOT how the study may affect frontage and access for this parcel.
  • Flood, soils and environmental: the listing does not discuss them. Request the reports or commission your own.
  • Taxes: the listing prints no tax figure. Ask the county for current taxes and confirm the effect of your plan with your tax advisor.

Does the listing say anything about financing?

No, the listing states no financing terms, so a buyer should speak with a lender before writing an offer.

Why is Gravette worth the diligence?

It also counts 500 new housing units in the pipeline through nearby approved subdivisions. Those are the demand facts to test against your own plan.
