Crye-Leike Realtors CEO Harold Crye has not kept quiet about his intentions to become Northwest Arkansas's largest residential real estate firm.

 

And judging by the number of new offices and staff, Crye is well on his way.

 

But to become No. 1 in the market, Crye-Leike will have to knock off market giant Lindsey & Associates.

 

Crye-Leike hasn't yet been able to duplicate Lindsey's sales numbers but has encroached on another aspect of Lindsey's real estate business - its title company. Lindsey and Crye-Leike own title agencies that are both, coincidently, named Realty Title.

 

The distinction between the two names comes after the ampersand. Lindsey's company is Realty Title & Closing Services while Crye-Leike's company goes by Realty Title & Escrow Services.

Crye-Leike Realtors of Memphis is still expanding its Arkansas operations after building the largest market share among residential realty firms in the state.

 

The company is set to open an office in southwest Little Rock in August and another Springdale location in the fall. Crye-Leike also is about to break ground on a Bella Vista branch expected to open during the first quarter of 2009.

 

Next year should see the opening of new offices in Bentonville and Siloam Springs on sites the company already has secured.

 

But wait. There's more.

 

"We have some other thoughts for locations," said Harold Crye, the firm's namesake chief executive officer.

 

Did you know that Crye-Leike also bought two northwest...

When Jennifer Grandon bought her Prairie Grove home in 2005, gas was $2.15 per gallon and the one way 23-mile drive to work was a compromise made to find a larger house she could afford on her single income.

 

Grandon was moving up from a small starter home she owned in Fayetteville.

 

Now that gas is pushing $4 per gallon, she would like to sell and move closer to her workplace in Springdale, eliminating the 230-mile weekly commute.

 

"I kept my house in Fayetteville as a rental and I would move back in a heartbeat if I could only sell my house in Prairie Grove," Grandon said.

 

The problem for Grandon and dozens of others in similar situations is homes in outlying areas are in generous in supply but sho...

Several weeks of friendly competition at the Crye-Leike, REALTORS Olive Branch office ended recently with a victory lunch celebration.  The winning team, calling themselves the "House Hustlers" was competing against their office rival to see which team could generate the most business in the current housing market.  Two teams were formed and agents on both earned points each week based on contact with potential buyers and sellers, obtaining new property listings and achieving successful closings.

 

When the points were totaled the "House Hustlers" were declared the winners.  The team's prize, in keeping with the contest theme "Stir Up Business"... was a home cooked southern style lunch "stirred up" by the competing team.

 

Olive Branch Managing Broker Tracy Kirkley considers the month-long contest a great success as sales associates on both te...
