Find Cash Buyers in the Tri-Cities Metro

The Tri-Cities metro (Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol) has a median home price near $240,000 and an affordable investment market in the northeast Tennessee mountains. ETSU (East Tennessee State University) in Johnson City and healthcare employers provide rental demand. Landlord investors target $120K-$200K properties across the three cities, while the region's Appalachian charm attracts STR investors in rural areas. Tennessee's no-income-tax status enhances returns. Assignment fees range from $3,000 to $8,000.

How Deal Run Finds Buyers in the Tri-Cities 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 Tennessee. 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.

For a detailed explanation of how the search algorithm works, see our investor search feature page.

Skip Trace Investors in the Tri-Cities Metro

Many investors in the Tri-Cities Metro buy through LLCs, making direct contact difficult from deed records alone. Deal Run's built-in skip tracing resolves entity names to the actual person behind them — returning phone numbers, email addresses, and mailing addresses. Results are cached so you never pay twice for the same investor. Skip tracing is included free on all paid plans.

Market Your Deals Across the Tri-Cities Metro

After identifying and contacting buyers, Deal Run lets you build a professional marketing package for each deal — complete with photos, property details, financial analysis, and an offer submission form. Share it via a branded link, email your buyer list, or text investors directly. Every interaction is tracked so you know who viewed your deal, clicked through, and submitted interest.
