Data last updated
In Scottsdale (85251), investors own about 212 tracked properties across 116 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $510,000. 88 were acquired in the last 12 months.
The trend is upward: 88 purchases this year against 69 last, about 28% more. Expect contracts to move faster and price expectations to firm up.
85251 has 116 active cash buyers holding roughly 212 properties. Fewer than 0.8 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.
Investors here buy at a median of $510,000. The average of $1,027,000 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 65.5% 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 1972. About 65.5% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
