Investor-held stock here dates to a median of 2002. At 2.0% pre-1980, this is comparatively new housing — lighter rehab, fewer legacy-systems surprises.
89 cash buyers are active in 85335, and between them they hold about 731 properties. Fewer than 0.8 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.
Investors here buy at a median of $368,000. The average of $2,950,000 sits well above it, so a tail of higher-priced deals is pulling the mean up — most activity happens below the average, and pricing off the median is the safer read.
97.7% of tracked activity in 85335 is buy & hold. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.
