Inside the Lake County numbers

Volume fell to 147 investor purchases over the last 12 months from about 1,300, down some 89%. Negotiating leverage has shifted toward whoever is still buying.

Investor ownership in Lake County runs to roughly 3,075 properties, spread across 131 active buyers. Each averaged under 1.1 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.

The median investor purchase lands near $53,000. The gap between that median and the $92,000 average is the story here — a few outsized trades, with the real volume well underneath them.

Strategy here skews to buy & hold, which accounts for 100.0% of tracked deals. Because these buyers underwrite to cash flow, a credible rent figure moves a deal further than a renovation estimate.

Within Lake County, 46409, 46404 and 46407 see the heaviest investor activity — start there before working outward through the rest of the county.

All figures above reflect recorded transactions in this county and update as records are processed. Past activity only — nothing here is a forecast or investment advice.
