Inside the 85203 numbers

Investors bought 81 properties here over 12 months, up roughly 189% from about 28 a year earlier. Rising volume usually means capital returning to the market rather than leaving it.

Investors here buy at a median of $485,000. The average of $2,471,000 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 value-add / rehab, which accounts for 59.9% of tracked deals. Rehab-oriented money rewards deals other buyers pass on, so condition matters less here than margin.

The median investor-owned home was built around 1979. About 59.9% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

Investor ownership in 85203 runs to roughly 203 properties, spread across 69 active buyers. Averaging below 1.2 purchases per buyer last year, this is a wide, shallow pool — a numbers game where reach beats depth.

These numbers come from recorded purchases in this ZIP code, updated as new records land. They report what has already happened and are not a prediction or investment advice.
