Reading the 50323 market
87.5% of tracked activity in 50323 is buy & hold. Because these buyers underwrite to cash flow, a credible rent figure moves a deal further than a renovation estimate.
50323 has 5 active cash buyers holding roughly 8 properties. Averaging below 0.8 purchases per buyer last year, this is a wide, shallow pool — a numbers game where reach beats depth.
Investors here buy at a median of $217,000. With an average of $242,000, pricing is consistent across deals — few outliers in either direction.
Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 2002. At 12.5% pre-1980, this is comparatively new housing — lighter rehab, fewer legacy-systems surprises.
All figures above reflect recorded transactions in this ZIP code and update as records are processed. Past activity only — nothing here is a forecast or investment advice.
