In Jamestown, investors own about 34 tracked properties across 12 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $122,000. 5 were acquired in the last 12 months.
Acquisition pace is cooling: 5 properties bought in the last 12 months against roughly 8 the year before, down about 38%. Fewer buyers are competing per deal, which usually means more room to negotiate but a longer search for the right one.
Investor ownership in Jamestown runs to roughly 34 properties, spread across 12 active buyers. Each averaged under 0.4 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.
Investors here buy at a median of $122,000. The average of $175,000 sits well above it, so a tail of higher-priced deals is pulling the mean up — most activity happens below the average, and pricing off the median is the safer read.
67.7% of tracked activity in Jamestown is buy & hold. Because these buyers underwrite to cash flow, a credible rent figure moves a deal further than a renovation estimate.
The median investor-owned home was built around 1986. Just 29.4% was built before 1980, which keeps renovation scopes and disclosure burdens down.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIPs 27282 and 27265 are absorbing the most investor purchases in Jamestown, and they are the fastest place to start a buyer list before working outward through the rest of the city.
