Source: This dataset combines data from Public Records and MLS transactions. The data lists the number of all-cash purchases and the total number of home purchases nationwide including the most recent five quarters of data. (Cash purchase defined when a Property Sold record does not have a Mortgage Balance.) Data coverage is limited by available MLS coverage. Certain geographies like Georgia (especially Central GA), South Dakota and Vermont were impacted by this data availability. Land sales and manufactured (MFR) home sales are excluded from the dataset.

"Talk about the extra mile...Lee and his team definitely went above and beyond!!! Buying a home in itself is already a very stressful process. Add life and unexpected information that you need to produce in order to purchase your dream home and you have a recipe for a meltdown.This happened several times in our experience and each time Lee and his team came alongside of us to jump yet another hurdle. His cool level demeanor helped us to stay calm and collective and at the end of the day. We got our home and met a fantastic group of people that will go way above and beyond! To help to make your dream of home ownership a reality.Thanks a million guys for helping this Marine veteran and his family.Forever grateful,The Delatorre's"
