Cash-buyer and investment activity over the last 12 months.
Data last updated
In Troy, investors own about 512 tracked properties across 28 active buyers. 32 were acquired in the last 12 months.
Troy has 28 active cash buyers holding roughly 512 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged under 1.1 purchases each, so the buyer pool is broad rather than concentrated: more names to work, with fewer deals riding on any single relationship.
Acquisition pace is cooling. Investors bought 32 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 108 the year before — down about 70%. 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 66.5% 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 2018. Only about 15.3% predates 1980, so the stock skews newer and rehab scopes tend to be lighter.
Activity is not spread evenly. ZIP 76579 is absorbing the most investor purchases in Troy, and it is the fastest place to start if you are building a buyer list from scratch.
