How Deal Run Finds Buyers in the Lakeland-Winter Haven Metro
Deal Run uses a two-query buyer identification search to find active investors near any address. The first query identifies landlords — absentee owners who purchased investment property within the last 2-5 years. The second query identifies flippers — investors who bought and resold a property within 12 months. Each investor receives an Investor Score based on proximity to your deal, recency of their last purchase, budget alignment, property type match, and overall transaction activity.
This data comes from public transaction records filed with county offices across Florida. Every property sale, deed transfer, and mortgage filing becomes part of the public record, revealing exactly who is buying investment properties, where they are buying, what they are paying, and how frequently they transact.
