Investor purchase activity, drawn from the last 12 months of records.
Data last updated
In Tempe, investors own about 1,339 tracked properties across 262 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $47,500,000. 296 were acquired in the last 12 months.
Strategy here skews to buy & hold, which accounts for 57.6% of tracked deals. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.
Across Tempe, 262 active buyers account for approximately 1,339 investor-held properties. Fewer than 1.1 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.
Volume held at 296 investor purchases over 12 months, versus roughly 292 the year prior. Neither competition nor opportunity has shifted much.
Half of investor purchases here close below $47,500,000. Average and median nearly agree here ($35,704,000), which makes comps unusually reliable.
Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1986. About 40.6% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIPs 85281, 85282 and 85283 are absorbing the most investor purchases in Tempe, and they are the fastest place to start a buyer list before working outward through the rest of the city.
