Inside the 43220 numbers
The trend is downward: 21 purchases against 251 the prior year, a decline of about 92%. Deals take longer to place here, and sellers who price for last year's market will sit.
Most capital here runs buy & hold — 64.5% of tracked activity. Because these buyers underwrite to cash flow, a credible rent figure moves a deal further than a renovation estimate.
Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1985. Only about 35.5% predates 1980, so the stock skews newer and rehab scopes tend to be lighter.
43220 has 24 active cash buyers holding roughly 546 properties. Fewer than 0.9 purchases per buyer over the past year means buying is thinly spread, so breadth of outreach matters more than any one contact.
Half of investor purchases here close below $196,000. Because the average runs to $11,170,000, this market has two populations: a broad base near the median and a thin band of much larger deals.
