Northfield has 12 active cash buyers holding roughly 118 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged under 1.7 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 cooling. Investors bought 20 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 64 the year before — down about 69%. Fewer buyers are competing per deal, which usually means more room to negotiate but a longer search for the right one.
The median investor purchase lands near $132,000. The average of $183,000 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 new construction, at 45.8% of tracked activity. Buyers here are absorbing newly built inventory, so wholesalers working tired or distressed stock are pitching against the grain of what most of this market's capital is currently doing.
The median investor-owned home was built around 2022. Only about 30.6% predates 1980, so the stock skews newer and rehab scopes tend to be lighter.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIP 44067 is absorbing the most investor purchases in Northfield, and it is the fastest place to start if you are building a buyer list from scratch.
