In Round Lake Beach, investors own about 34 tracked properties across 20 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $113,000. 4 were acquired in the last 12 months.
Round Lake Beach has 20 active cash buyers holding roughly 34 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged under 0.2 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 4 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 15 the year before — down about 73%. 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 $113,000. The average of $106,000 is close behind it, so purchases cluster in a fairly tight band rather than splitting into distinct price tiers.
The dominant play is buy & hold, at 52.4% 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 1982. About 47.6% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIP 60073 is absorbing the most investor purchases in Round Lake Beach, and it is the fastest place to start if you are building a buyer list from scratch.
