As such, Skip Tracers are experts at adapting to a wide range of unique situations and requirements presented to them by their clients.

It’s an amazing way to help people working in real estate expand their influence and reach a more significant number of potential buyers and sellers.

Skip Tracing: Is It Legal?

If you’re in need of skip tracing or batch skip tracing services for any reason, you may be wracked with concern over the legality of it. After all, if someone’s contact information is so difficult to obtain, then indeed doing so would violate the law, right? 

Well, we’re pleased to be able to assure you that skip tracing is completely legal. Journalists, estate agents, lawyers, debt collectors, and more use skip tracers—all professions that have a vested interest in staying on the right side of the law. 

What’s more, with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, skip tracing is only getting more important in society. Our strategies for locating people have shown to be incredibly useful for tracking down infected individuals, thereby preventing the spread of the virus.

How Is It Legal?

Contrary to popular belief, skip tracers don’t break—or even bend—rules in finding the address, contact information, travel history, loan history, tax records, or anything else regarding the people we’re tasked with locating.

Every piece of information we uncover is done so 100% within the confines of the law, mostly through accessing public records. We can also contact friends, family, acquaintances, or colleagues of individuals in order to locate them. However, this is also done honestly and without any deception.

Why Can’t I Access These Records Myself?

Indeed, the information we access as skip tracers is available in the public record, meaning that you could access it too technically. The catch is: “publicly available” doesn’t necessarily mean “easily available.” Trawling through public records, particularly if it’s not something you’re familiar with, can be as time-consuming as a full-time job. It’s not impossible for someone to take skip-tracing into their own hands, but it is wholly unrealistic for most people.
