Limbird Real Estate Group in Rogers, Arkansas, Again An Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Business

ROGERS, Ark. - Sept. 5, 2018 - PRLog -- Inc. magazine has ranked Northwest Arkansas-based Limbird Real Estate Group No. 1964 on its 37th annual Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The Inc. 5000 represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy's most dynamic segment— its independent small businesses. Companies such as Microsoft, Zillow, Dell, Timberland, LinkedIn and other well-known names gained  national exposure as Inc. 5000 honorees.

The 2018 Inc. 5000, unveiled online at Inc.com and with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc., is the most competitive crop in the list's history. According to Inc., only 12 percent of all American companies achieve a one-year revenue growth of 25 percent or more. By comparison, Limbird Real Estate Group grew by 228 percent over the last three years. In 2017, the Limbird Team achieved $120 million in gross sales with 501 closings. On average, they close a home every 17 hours.

For the purposes of the Inc. 5000 (https://www.inc.com/profile/limbird-real-estate-group) list, companies are ranked by Inc. according to percentage revenue growth from 2014 to 2017. No company on the Inc. 5000 has grown by less than 50 percent over that time period.

"When we made the Inc. 5000 list for the first time last year, we had no idea our small firm was operating at a level on par with other, often larger, independent businesses around the country," explains Principal Broker and Owner Tara Limbird. "Now, to repeat again this year, really validates the incredible teamwork of our 13 agent and eight employees who comprised Limbird Real Estate Group in 2017, as well as the handful of people we have added this year as we continue to grow and serve our clients."

One of only 236 U.S. real estate-related firms on the list (and dozens of these were home builders or apartment management firms, not residential real estate companies), Limbird Real Estate Group was the only residential real estate firm in Arkansas to make the Inc. 5000 list in 2018. Complete results of the Inc. 5000 can be found at inc.com/inc5000.

Striving to be unique in the Northwest Arkansas real estate marketplace, Limbird Real Estate Group (http://www.limbirdteam.com/) offers a Guaranteed Sold Program. If a home isn't sold in 99 days, the team will buy it for a previously agreed price. The firm also offers a Love it or Leave it Guarantee. If a home buyer doesn't love the new home within the first year, Limbird will resell it free and help them buy another home.

Limbird says the outlook for the area is a positive one. "Northwest Arkansas has an average of 32 people per day moving into the area, creating a demand for housing.  Local area economists see much more growth in the residential, commercial and multi-family housing for years to come."

They are the number one real estate team in Arkansas six years running. The Limbird Team has been voted the Best of the Best Real Estate Agents in Northwest Arkansas multiple times by readers of NWA Media, including NWAOnline.com and the Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette, plus Best Team and Best Real Estate Company by both Celebrate Arkansas magazine and Citiscapes. AY Magazine named Tara Limbird the Face of Real Estate in Northwest Arkansas earlier this year.
