Search Property Records in 50301, Des Moines IA

The 50301 ZIP code in Des Moines is a mixed urban market encompassing downtown neighborhoods, historic residential areas, multifamily buildings, offices, retail space, and civic properties; parcel-level records indicate roughly 5,000 to 5,500 properties in the ZIP code, although the total number of individual housing units is higher because many parcels contain apartments or condominium buildings. Residential properties make up the largest share of the local inventory, with single-family homes estimated at about 45% to 50% of parcels, condominium and co-op properties at approximately 10% to 15%, and commercial, office, retail, industrial, and other nonresidential parcels representing roughly 25% to 30%; the remaining share includes multifamily, institutional, government-owned, and vacant land parcels. Recent home-sale activity suggests a median residential sale price of approximately $200,000 to $230,000, while condominium pricing and newly renovated urban housing can vary substantially by building, parking availability, amenities, and proximity to downtown employment centers. The average sale price per square foot is generally around $160 to $200, with historic homes requiring renovation often selling below that range and updated condos or newer downtown units sometimes exceeding it. Sales volume is relatively modest compared with larger suburban ZIP codes because of the area’s concentration of commercial and multifamily property, but the market has typically recorded about 200 to 300 residential sales per year on average over the past 10 years, or roughly 2,000 to 3,000 transactions across the 2016–2025 period. Demand in 50301 is supported by walkability, access to major employers, entertainment districts, and urban amenities, while pricing can differ sharply between older single-family homes, converted historic buildings, downtown condominiums, and income-producing commercial properties.
