Reading the 97215 market

Buying has picked up in 97215. The last 12 months brought 22 investor purchases versus about 12 the year prior — an increase of roughly 83%, which means more bidders on the same contracts.

Typical construction year on investor-owned property is 1941. 82.9% of the stock is pre-1980 — budget for older wiring, plumbing and the paperwork that comes with it.

Across 97215, 33 active buyers account for approximately 51 investor-held properties. Fewer than 0.7 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 $440,000. Average and median nearly agree here ($432,000), which makes comps unusually reliable.

Most capital here runs value-add / rehab — 82.9% 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.
