Reading the 43016 market

Volume fell to 11 investor purchases over the last 12 months from about 584, down some 98%. Negotiating leverage has shifted toward whoever is still buying.

Investor-held stock here dates to a median of 2011. At 4.0% pre-1980, this is comparatively new housing — lighter rehab, fewer legacy-systems surprises.

18 cash buyers are active in 43016, and between them they hold about 733 properties. Fewer than 0.6 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.

Investors here buy at a median of $127,000. With an average of $148,000, pricing is consistent across deals — few outliers in either direction.

The dominant play is buy & hold, at 96.0% of tracked activity. Because these buyers underwrite to cash flow, a credible rent figure moves a deal further than a renovation estimate.

Counts and prices here are drawn from recorded investor purchases in this ZIP code and refresh with new records. They are a record of past activity, not a forecast or investment advice.
