Cash-buyer and investment activity over the last 12 months.
Data last updated
In Clive, investors own about 19 tracked properties across 11 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $185,000. 3 were acquired in the last 12 months.
The trend is downward: 3 purchases against 5 the prior year, a decline of about 40%. Deals take longer to place here, and sellers who price for last year's market will sit.
Half of investor purchases here close below $185,000. Because the average runs to $243,000, this market has two populations: a broad base near the median and a thin band of much larger deals.
The dominant play is value-add / rehab, at 78.9% of tracked activity. That favors sellers bringing renovation projects: the capital here is set up to take on work, not to avoid it.
Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1976. About 78.9% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
Buying concentrates in one place here: 50325 takes the largest share of investor purchases in Clive.
Clive has 11 active cash buyers holding roughly 19 properties. Averaging below 0.3 purchases per buyer last year, this is a wide, shallow pool — a numbers game where reach beats depth.
