Inside the Douglas County numbers

Typical deal size in Douglas County sits around $146,000. An average of $875,000 against that median means a handful of large purchases are skewing the mean. Use the median when you price, or you will aim high and lose the middle of the market.

The median investor-owned home was built around 1948. 79.7% of the stock is pre-1980 — budget for older wiring, plumbing and the paperwork that comes with it.

Across Douglas County, 186 active buyers account for approximately 2,834 investor-held properties. At roughly 4.1 purchases each over the past year, this is a concentrated pool: a handful of operators are doing the bulk of the buying, so relationships matter more than list size.
