Recorded investor purchases and holdings over the past year.
Data last updated
In Scottsdale (85262), investors own about 300 tracked properties across 53 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $550,000. 67 were acquired in the last 12 months.
The trend is downward: 67 purchases against 150 the prior year, a decline of about 55%. Deals take longer to place here, and sellers who price for last year's market will sit.
Strategy here skews to new construction, which accounts for 59.7% of tracked deals. That appetite for new inventory means condition sells itself — and that rehab-heavy deals are a harder placement than the buyer count implies.
The median investor-owned home was built around 2024. Just 0.0% was built before 1980, which keeps renovation scopes and disclosure burdens down.
There are 53 buyers paying cash in 85262 today, against a standing position of about 300 properties. Averaging below 1.3 purchases per buyer last year, this is a wide, shallow pool — a numbers game where reach beats depth.
Investors here buy at a median of $550,000. The average of $1,025,000 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.
