How to find cash buyers on MLS?

Question

Can someone tell me how to find cash buyers on the MLS? I have duplex deals in Austin and I'm looking to start a buyers list. Thanks in advance!

@Aaron Schwartz - You can just run a search for sold properties (you can filter the search by map, address, zip codes, date range, and other criteria just as if you were looking for active listings or comps).

The only extra thing you have to add to your search filters is the "Financing" or "Financing Available" field (you may have to manually add this to your search filter options using the "Add/Remove Additional Fields" feature the first time you do it), then select "Cash":

Your MLS may vary slightly, but they generally all have this functionality. It's a great way to find recent cash buyers!

Please add me to your list.

I believe you can pull a list of cash sales using the realist tool if you have MLS access.

Otherwise, you could buy a list from listsource or one of the other list providers.

This isn't the MLS, but in California you can go down to the county and pull a list of deeds of trust that have been recorded. These people are usually the big investors who have a lot of activity, and aren't necessarily on the MLS.
