Search Property Records in 50542, Goldfield IA
The 50542 ZIP code in Goldfield, Iowa, is a small, predominantly owner-occupied rural market with an estimated 400 to 450 total real-property parcels and roughly 350 housing units, although the ZIP code also includes surrounding rural land beyond Goldfield’s municipal limits. Single-family detached houses represent the clear majority of the built property base, accounting for approximately 85% to 90% of residential properties; condominiums and co-ops make up a very limited share of about 1% to 3%, while commercial properties—including downtown retail, service buildings, offices, and mixed-use sites—represent roughly 5% to 8% of improved properties, with agricultural acreage and farm-related parcels adding another important component of the broader ZIP-area inventory. Typical home values remain comparatively affordable for Iowa, with a recent median home price generally around $95,000 to $125,000, while average asking prices often fall near $85 to $110 per square foot, depending heavily on condition, lot size, updates, and whether a home includes acreage or outbuildings. Sales volume is modest because of the area’s small housing base, with an estimated average of about 10 to 20 residential transactions per year over the past 10 years; annual activity can vary substantially because a handful of larger rural-home or acreage sales can influence local averages. Most available homes are older detached residences, commonly built before the mid-20th century, and the market tends to favor buyers seeking lower entry costs, small-town living, and access to nearby employment centers, while well-maintained homes with modern mechanical systems, updated kitchens and baths, garages, or acreage generally command the strongest pricing within Goldfield, Iowa.
