NAF Cash Can Turn You into a Cash Buyer

Interact with our map to track cash
Purchase trends across the country

With NAF Cash, you can make a competitive, true cash offer that is not contingent on financing and close in little as seven days without having to sell your current home first.

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.

"First and foremost, Gloria James is amazing!! She literally held my hand and walked me through every step, and as a first time homebuyer, this is the exact type of assistance I was looking for. Buying a home for your first time is very scary, intimidating, and there’s so much information and paperwork and majority you will not know what your reading or signing, but Gloria was an amazing advisor and she was super prompt and thorough. I appreciate her quick responses and providing clarity along the way. I have already started giving out Gloria‘s information to friends, family members and strangers. Because of Gloria, I was able to close on the house in less than one month and the entire process was smoother than I could’ve ever imagined. First time homebuyers do not have to be scared during this process when they have Gloria and her team in their corner. I am forever grateful for this experience, thank you!"

"Gloria made it great. However I went into my offer fully underwritten by one loan officer and that individual went on vacation and I had to resend additional documents and wait on a new processor to do the process all over again. There should have been better communication internally to address this leave prior to working on my loan."
