about Jake Newell.
Jake has been involved in the residential growth of Northwest Arkansas for the past 18 years. His background lies in building infill single family, multifamily, and mixed-use developments with a deep passion for developing creative core urban projects.
After graduating from the University of Arkansas with a BS BA in Marketing Management, he transitioned from his career in construction management into development with the formation of Newell Development and Wheelhouse Real Estate. His extensive background in acquiring, developing, and selling unique infill properties has had a proven impact on real estate development throughout the region. Jake says he is most proud of his work when he sees his clients leading active lifestyles and interacting with the outdoor space around them—walking, biking, or gathering with friends outdoors—all that plays into Newell’s mission of “Curating Place”.
Outside of work, you’ll likely find him either riding or running one of Bentonville’s trails, or spending time with his wife and two sons.
