Jim Lindsey and J.W. Gabel founded Lindsey & Associates in 1972. The company brings together the homeowners and the homebuyers of northwest Arkansas. It provides newcomers with relocation packages, assignment to a knowledgeable agent, help with finding the right school, neighborhood and proximity to work as well as concern for each parties individual needs before, during and after the move. The company also has possible interim rental options through the Lindsey Management Company. Lindsey & Associates works with many relocation companies across the United States. These contacts offer a direct link to those who want to move to the area. Sellers profit from this exposure to potential buyers. Lindsey & Associates is headquartered in Fayetteville, Ark., as well as offices in Rogers and Bella Vista, Ark.
