What the 85086 numbers mean

90.3% of tracked activity in 85086 is buy & hold. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.

Investors here buy at a median of $450,000. With an average of $481,000, pricing is consistent across deals — few outliers in either direction.

Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 2004. At 1.0% pre-1980, this is comparatively new housing — lighter rehab, fewer legacy-systems surprises.

85086 has 77 active cash buyers holding roughly 312 properties. Each averaged under 0.7 purchases over the last 12 months, so the pool is broad rather than concentrated: more names to work, with less riding on any single relationship.

The trend is downward: 51 purchases against 58 the prior year, a decline of about 12%. Deals take longer to place here, and sellers who price for last year's market will sit.
