Real estate company could be anything.

You could talking to someone in residential, land buyers,house rehabbers, developers etc.

A commercial brokerage company could focus on leasing, transacting, property management together or just on thing. Additionally they could only focus on one asset class such as retail.

The cash buyer you need to vet them and see proof of funds and if they will put up non-refundable money. Additionally you need to run an analysis on the other buyers offers how much higher they are than the cash one. If the difference is small say 20,000 then cash is king. If its hundreds of thousands difference and they want to get  a loan with some down then you have to make sure it can appraise for that value. Otherwise the buyer will try and drop down the price and you might have been better going with the cash offer buyer in the beginning.
