Data last updated
In Fox Lake (60020), investors own about 49 tracked properties across 16 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $110,000. 7 were acquired in the last 12 months.
60020 has 16 active cash buyers holding roughly 49 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged under 0.4 purchases each, so the buyer pool is broad rather than concentrated: more names to work, with fewer deals riding on any single relationship.
Acquisition pace is cooling. Investors bought 7 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 16 the year before — down about 56%. Fewer buyers are competing per deal, which usually means more room to negotiate but a longer search for the right one.
The median investor purchase lands near $110,000. The average of $111,000 is close behind it, so purchases cluster in a fairly tight band rather than splitting into distinct price tiers.
The dominant play is value-add / rehab, at 83.3% of tracked activity. That favors sellers bringing renovation projects: the capital in this market is set up to take on work, not to avoid it.
The median investor-owned home was built around 1970. About 83.3% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
