How to find investor hotspots in a city?

[Gary Dezoysa]

Hi,

I heard looking up all cash sales in the MLS and counting instances by census area will show you where the investor hotspots are in a city. I don't have MLS access though so was curious if there were other ways besides this and asking around?

I'm new to Listsource but digging around it trying to see if there is a proxy option to find likely investor sales by tract for roughly the same insight.
