People Searches

Finding people and locating a current address can be very tricky, especially for those trying to hide. Docusearch offers several different locate searches depending on the information you have.

If you possess your subject’s social security number, the Locate By SSN is the most cost effective. This search combs credit bureau records and returns your subject’s reported current address as well as address history. These records are updated hourly and doesn’t matter if credit is good or bad, however your subject must be over 25 years old and have an established credit history.

The Locate By Name/Previous Address Search is the same search however it is researched by a previous address.

The Phone Number Lookup is an often over-looked locate tool. Provided the number is land-based, it will return the physical address of the number; even if it is unlisted, guaranteed.

The Skip Trace Locate should be utilized when your subject has recently moved (normally within 3 months) and searches utility records at the previous address to determine any forwarding address information.

When all other searches fail, the Verified Address Search is guaranteed to return your subject’s current residential address or you pay nothing.

The Date Of Birth Search is designed to return your subject’s exact date of birth. The source of this search is derived from the major credit bureau indexes.

Two relatively new searches are the Identity Verification Search and the SSN Verification Search. Both searches are especially useful as an excellent first step in a comprehensive employment screening or investigation.
