How 43212 actually trades
The trend is upward: 10 purchases this year against 1 last, about 900% more. Expect contracts to move faster and price expectations to firm up.
Half of investor purchases here close below $83,000. Because the average runs to $141,000, this market has two populations: a broad base near the median and a thin band of much larger deals.
Strategy here skews to value-add / rehab, which accounts for 97.3% of tracked deals. Buyers geared for renovation will look at stock that would not trade in a new-construction market.
Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1947. 97.3% of the stock is pre-1980 — budget for older wiring, plumbing and the paperwork that comes with it.
43212 has 9 active cash buyers holding roughly 171 properties. Averaging below 1.1 purchases per buyer last year, this is a wide, shallow pool — a numbers game where reach beats depth.
