What investors are doing in 98403

Volume fell to 1 investor purchases over the last 12 months from about 4, down some 75%. Negotiating leverage has shifted toward whoever is still buying.

Investors here buy at a median of $475,000. With an average of $520,000, pricing is consistent across deals — few outliers in either direction.

Strategy here skews to value-add / rehab, which accounts for 100.0% of tracked deals. 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 1942. About 100.0% predates 1980, so lead-paint disclosure, older systems and heavier rehab budgets are normal here.

6 cash buyers are active in 98403, and between them they hold about 18 properties. Each averaged under 0.2 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.

These numbers come from recorded purchases in this ZIP code, updated as new records land. They report what has already happened and are not a prediction or investment advice.
