Data last updated
In Temple (76502), investors own about 4,586 tracked properties across 100 active buyers. 334 were acquired in the last 12 months.
76502 has 100 active cash buyers holding roughly 4,586 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged about 3.3 purchases each, which points to a market worked by repeat, high-volume operators rather than one-off purchasers — expect a smaller set of names to account for most of the deal flow.
Acquisition pace is cooling. Investors bought 334 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 1,291 the year before — down about 74%. Fewer buyers are competing per deal, which usually means more room to negotiate but a longer search for the right one.
The dominant play is buy & hold, at 60.7% of tracked activity. Buy-and-hold capital prices for yield rather than resale margin, so rent support matters more to these buyers than after-repair comps.
The median investor-owned home was built around 1999. Only about 24.5% predates 1980, so the stock skews newer and rehab scopes tend to be lighter.
