What the Forest Hill numbers mean

The trend is downward: 34 purchases against 57 the prior year, a decline of about 40%. Deals take longer to place here, and sellers who price for last year's market will sit.

Across Forest Hill, 51 active buyers account for approximately 211 investor-held properties. Each averaged under 0.7 purchases over the last 12 months, so the pool is broad rather than concentrated: more names to work, with less riding on any single relationship.

The dominant play is value-add / rehab, at 66.1% of tracked activity. Buyers geared for renovation will look at stock that would not trade in a new-construction market.

Investor-held stock here dates to a median of 1972. About 66.1% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

Buying concentrates geographically: 76119 and 76140 take the largest share of investor purchases in Forest Hill, which makes them the obvious first targets before working outward through the rest of the city.

All figures above reflect recorded transactions in this city and update as records are processed. Past activity only — nothing here is a forecast or investment advice.
