Data last updated
In Scottdale, investors own about 119 tracked properties across 20 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $546,000. 75 were acquired in the last 12 months.
Scottdale has 20 active cash buyers holding roughly 119 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged about 3.8 purchases each, which points to a market worked by repeat, high-volume operators rather than one-off purchasers — expect a smaller set of names to account for most of the deal flow.
Acquisition pace is accelerating. Investors bought 75 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 21 the year before — up about 257%. Competition for contracts is rising, and buyers who were quiet a year ago are active again.
The median investor purchase lands near $546,000. The average of $1,224,000 sits well above that median, which means a tail of higher-priced deals is pulling the mean up — most activity is happening below the average, and pricing a deal off the median is the safer read.
The dominant play is buy & hold, at 100.0% 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.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIP 30079 is absorbing the most investor purchases in Scottdale, and it is the fastest place to start if you are building a buyer list from scratch.
