Q. What information do you look for in an asset search?
a. Real property ownership. If we determine that your party owns real property we attempt to determine, based on comparable sales, the approximate value of the property and approximately how much is owed against the property.
b. Employment. We attempt to determine where the subject works, his or her job title and his or her income.
c. Business Interests. We check fictitious filings to determine if the subject is registered as being an owner of or partner in any business enterprises. We check with the Secretary of States Office to see if the subject is registered as being an officer of or registered agent for any corporation or if the subject is registered as being a general partner in any limited partnerships.
d. Securities Ownership. We attempt to determine if the subject maintains an open street account with any brokerage companies and if so, what is contained in the accounts.
e. Bank Accounts
f. Tax Liens, judgments, notices of default, and bankruptcies.
