There are 364 buyers paying cash in El Paso today, against a standing position of about 10,822 properties. With about 7.5 purchases per buyer last year, the money here is concentrated in operators who buy continuously — worth identifying the top few before working the rest.
Most capital here runs buy & hold — 48.3% 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.
