After a brief mini-tour professional golf career, John David joined Lindsey & Associates in 1996 as General Manager. Since 1999, he has served as Principal Broker and has been instrumental in the company’s growth. John David says, “Working for the company has been the professional honor of my lifetime. I’m eternally grateful for my father, JW Gabel, and everyone who has contributed to Lindsey & Associates' success.” Outside the office, John David enjoys spending time with his wife, Brooke, and their six children, as well as cheering for the Razorbacks and golfing.

**Palmer Hays** is a Northwest Arkansas native and has successfully represented clients in a variety of manners. Still, his specialty lies with industrial tenant and landlord representation, industrial sale leasebacks, and commercial land. “I’ve always believed that the pathway to assisting our clients in a first-class fashion is done best through a 24/7 pulse on property values, market activity, and the movement of capital.” He feels that Northwest Arkansas has much runway to grow the industrial product type as the community continues to evolve.
