Strategy here skews to value-add / rehab, which accounts for 73.6% of tracked deals. That favors sellers bringing renovation projects: the capital here is set up to take on work, not to avoid it.
The median investor-owned home was built around 1973. About 73.6% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
There are 154 buyers paying cash in 85033 today, against a standing position of about 450 properties. Fewer than 0.7 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.
Typical deal size in 85033 sits around $237,000. An average of $6,962,000 against that median means a handful of large purchases are skewing the mean. Use the median when you price, or you will aim high and lose the middle of the market.
