145 cash buyers are active in 43204, and between them they hold about 1,332 properties. Fewer than 1.0 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 $94,000. The average of $4,104,000 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.
The dominant play is value-add / rehab, at 78.4% of tracked activity. That favors sellers bringing renovation projects: the capital here is set up to take on work, not to avoid it.
Investor-held stock here dates to a median of 1953. 78.4% of the stock is pre-1980 — budget for older wiring, plumbing and the paperwork that comes with it.
