Inside the 85032 numbers

Investors here buy at a median of $390,000. The average of $1,811,000 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.

Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1980. About 47.2% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

There are 160 buyers paying cash in 85032 today, against a standing position of about 544 properties. Averaging below 0.8 purchases per buyer last year, this is a wide, shallow pool — a numbers game where reach beats depth.

Buying has picked up in 85032. The last 12 months brought 133 investor purchases versus about 110 the year prior — an increase of roughly 21%, which means more bidders on the same contracts.

The dominant play is buy & hold, at 52.8% of tracked activity. Because these buyers underwrite to cash flow, a credible rent figure moves a deal further than a renovation estimate.
