The Top Zip Codes for Investment Properties in Your Area [2021 3rd Quarter]

The numbers are in and we are excited to announce that our members made a considerable number of deals during the third quarter of 2021! This report provides data about which market areas and deal types are available for profitable investing. Keep reading to find out more!

Similar to this year’s first and second-quarter report, a new investment property deal type called motivated MLS has been included on MyHouseDeals. Motivated MLS deals are houses for sale on the multiple listing service (MLS) that are best suited for real estate investors. These houses are handpicked for MyHouseDeals due to their profit and negotiation potential.

Below we break out the four different deal types on our website: wholesale deals, investor-ready foreclosures, motivated seller deals, and motivated MLS deals. You’ll see graphs showing the percentage of each deal type along with which states and cities contain the most investment properties.

Next, we list the cities and zip codes with the greatest number of deals, followed by the average after-repair value (ARV) for each state. Check out the maps to see which areas are hot right now for bargain properties. To view the summarized report containing the top five zip codes for each market area, go here

Target properties in these zip codes since they are more likely to have motivated sellers and/or properties needing repair. Both of these conditions can lead to greater discounts and profits for investors like you.
