Data last updated
In St Paul (75098), investors own about 40 tracked properties across 13 active buyers, with a median investor purchase price near $277,000. 11 were acquired in the last 12 months.
75098 has 13 active cash buyers holding roughly 40 properties. Over the last 12 months they averaged under 0.8 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 accelerating. Investors bought 11 properties in the last 12 months against roughly 6 the year before — up about 83%. Competition for contracts is rising, and buyers who were quiet a year ago are active again.
The median investor purchase lands near $277,000. The average of $331,000 is close behind it, so purchases cluster in a fairly tight band rather than splitting into distinct price tiers.
The dominant play is buy & hold, at 84.2% 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 5.3% predates 1980, so the stock skews newer and rehab scopes tend to be lighter.
