Lithia has 31 active cash buyers holding roughly 290 properties. Each averaged under 0.3 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.
Investors here buy at a median of $550,000. The average of $12,701,000 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.
Most capital here runs buy & hold — 97.6% of tracked activity. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.
The median investor-owned home was built around 2005. Only about 0.8% predates 1980, so the stock skews newer and rehab scopes tend to be lighter.
