What investors are doing in 97266

Investors bought 31 properties here over 12 months, up roughly 35% from about 23 a year earlier. Rising volume usually means capital returning to the market rather than leaving it.

The median investor purchase lands near $250,000. An average of $281,000 that close to the median means one price band describes nearly the whole market.

The dominant play is value-add / rehab, at 45.5% of tracked activity. 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 1996. 45.5% of the stock is pre-1980 — budget for older wiring, plumbing and the paperwork that comes with it.

There are 44 buyers paying cash in 97266 today, against a standing position of about 186 properties. At under 0.7 deals per buyer in 12 months, no small group controls this market; expect to work a longer list for the same volume.

These numbers come from recorded purchases in this ZIP code, updated as new records land. They report what has already happened and are not a prediction or investment advice.
