Pine Bluff’s housing market reveals a stark disconnect between affordability and buyer interest, with 34.4% of active listings taking price cuts while homes sit on the market for a median 91 days.

The Pine Bluff metro recorded 262...

The bill is a compromise from the version that Lamont had vetoed in June, which was followed by a special session to allow lawmakers more time to revise the...

Thanksgiving movies don’t always get the same hype as Christmas classics, but they’ve given us some of the most memorable homes on screen — the places where chaos unfolds, relatives collide, pies burn, and someone inevitably ends up carving the turkey badly. And since half the fun of these movies is low-key judging the interiors (and imagining what they’d go for in today’s market), it only...
