What the 85051 numbers mean

Buying has picked up in 85051. The last 12 months brought 201 investor purchases versus about 106 the year prior — an increase of roughly 90%, which means more bidders on the same contracts.

Strategy here skews to value-add / rehab, which accounts for 93.8% of tracked deals. That favors sellers bringing renovation projects: the capital here is set up to take on work, not to avoid it.

Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1971. About 93.8% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

120 cash buyers are active in 85051, and between them they hold about 594 properties. Fewer than 1.7 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.

Half of investor purchases here close below $375,000. Because the average runs to $4,533,000, this market has two populations: a broad base near the median and a thin band of much larger deals.
