In Akron (44310), investors own about 125 tracked properties across 34 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $330,000. 46 were acquired in the last 12 months.
44310 has 34 active cash buyers holding roughly 125 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged under 1.4 purchases each, so the buyer pool is broad rather than concentrated: more names to work, with fewer deals riding on any single relationship.
Acquisition pace is steady. Investors bought 46 properties in the last 12 months, close to the 49 they bought the year before, so the buyer pool here has held its footing rather than swinging with the headlines.
The median investor purchase lands near $330,000. The average of $1,145,000 sits well above that median, which means a tail of higher-priced deals is pulling the mean up — most activity is happening below the average, and pricing a deal off the median is the safer read.
The dominant play is value-add / rehab, at 80.5% of tracked activity. That favors sellers bringing renovation projects: the capital in this market is set up to take on work, not to avoid it.
The median investor-owned home was built around 1928. About 80.5% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
