Reading the 97216 market

The trend is upward: 17 purchases this year against 10 last, about 70% more. Expect contracts to move faster and price expectations to firm up.

27 cash buyers are active in 97216, and between them they hold about 61 properties. At under 0.6 deals per buyer in 12 months, no small group controls this market; expect to work a longer list for the same volume.

Typical deal size in 97216 sits around $203,000. The average of $246,000 is close behind, so purchases cluster in a fairly tight band rather than splitting into price tiers.

Strategy here skews to value-add / rehab, which accounts for 54.9% of tracked deals. Rehab-oriented money rewards deals other buyers pass on, so condition matters less here than margin.

Investor-held stock here dates to a median of 1962. About 54.9% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

All figures above reflect recorded transactions in this ZIP code and update as records are processed. Past activity only — nothing here is a forecast or investment advice.
