That count includes homes for rent, for sale, and seasonal homes, so it is a market-wide signal rather than a count of distressed homes; our county list is what identifies the distressed ones.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing age.\u003c\/strong\u003e The median home in Alameda County was built in 1969, about 11 years earlier than the U.S. median (1980). Older housing stock often means aging roofs, plumbing, and electrical systems, which is steady repair work for contractors and handyman crews and a lever for investors pricing rehabs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrices.\u003c\/strong\u003e The median home value of $1,090,100 is 228% above the U.S. median of $332,700, and equals 8.4 times the county's median household income of $129,367. A high price-to-income ratio means any discount to market value is large in dollar terms, which is why wholesalers watch spreads closely in counties like this.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTenure.\u003c\/strong\u003e Renters make up 45.6% of occupied homes in Alameda County, well above the national 34.8%.
