Finding buyers/creating buyers list

[Mary Newman]

I've been reading on ways to find reliable and consistent buyers and came across the idea of using the MLS listing to find buyers in my area. The only problems is that when I go to the MLS site, I don't even see the option to look at buyer names or any info regarding buyers. Maybe I am looking in the wrong section, or place all together. How do you find out what buyers are around you in order to inquire their focus/needs and reach out with deals?
