How 97206 actually trades

Across 97206, 79 active buyers account for approximately 292 investor-held properties. Each averaged under 1.1 purchases over the last 12 months, so the pool is broad rather than concentrated: more names to work, with less riding on any single relationship.

Investor-held stock here dates to a median of 1975. About 51.1% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

Buying in 97206 is flat year over year — 86 purchases against about 83 previously. A stable market like this rewards consistent outreach over timing.

Half of investor purchases here close below $375,000. Because the average runs to $514,000, this market has two populations: a broad base near the median and a thin band of much larger deals.

Most capital here runs value-add / rehab — 51.1% of tracked activity. Buyers geared for renovation will look at stock that would not trade in a new-construction market.

Counts and prices here are drawn from recorded investor purchases in this ZIP code and refresh with new records. They are a record of past activity, not a forecast or investment advice.
