Typical deal size in 97203 sits around $375,000. An average of $596,000 against that median means a handful of large purchases are skewing the mean. Use the median when you price, or you will aim high and lose the middle of the market.
Strategy here skews to value-add / rehab, which accounts for 44.4% of tracked deals. Rehab-oriented money rewards deals other buyers pass on, so condition matters less here than margin.
The median investor-owned home was built around 2004. About 44.4% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.
Across 97203, 47 active buyers account for approximately 154 investor-held 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.
Volume held at 43 investor purchases over 12 months, versus roughly 40 the year prior. Neither competition nor opportunity has shifted much.
