Investors here buy at a median of $445,000. The average of $1,920,000 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.
Strategy here skews to buy & hold, which accounts for 90.9% of tracked deals. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.
