How to Find Homeowners Who Have Owned Their Home for 20+ Years

To research homeowners with long ownership histories, search an area in DealMachine and use its ownership-duration filter. Review returned properties and verify details independently. Long ownership does not show that someone wants to sell.

How do I search for homeowners who have owned a home for over 20 years?

1. Open AI Search and enter a location and an ownership-duration request, such as “Find homes in Austin, Texas owned for more than 20 years.”
2. Review the returned criteria and results. Adjust the request if needed, and confirm that the ownership-duration filter reflects what you asked for.
3. Treat the result as a research starting point. Verify property and ownership details before deciding who to contact.
4. If you want contact information, review available owner details and check the current credit estimate and plan guidance before requesting chargeable data.

Can I combine ownership duration with other filters?

AI Search can interpret natural-language requests and offers property filters. Available criteria can vary by search flow, so check the filters actually applied and the returned results rather than assuming every requested condition was used. Try asking for homes in a chosen city with long ownership, then inspect which criteria AI Search applies.

Worked example: research long-time owners in one city

Suppose you want to research homes in Austin with more than 20 years of ownership. Ask AI Search for that location and ownership period, then inspect the criteria it applied and review the matches. Verify each property and ownership detail before taking action. Revealing phone or email details may use people credits; chargeable property details may use property credits. Check the estimate and current plan guidance first.

Does owning a home for a long time mean the owner is motivated to sell?

No. Years owned describes ownership history; it does not show intent to sell. Treat it as one research criterion, not a sign that an owner is ready to sell.

How much does this search cost?

Browsing and searching are free. Revealing phone numbers or email addresses may use people credits, and chargeable property details may use property credits. Included credits and other limits depend on the current plan. Review pricing and Understanding Data Credits before requesting chargeable details.
