Occupancy Verification
Occupancy and Contact Verification
A second pass on the address you already have, so notice, service, and correspondence are not wasted.
What this service is
Occupancy and contact verification tests whether an address or contact point still appears current for a subject. It is used before service attempts, statutory notice, or correspondence that carries a legal consequence if misdirected.
Common qualifying use cases
- Confirming an address before a costly out-of-area service attempt
- Testing whether a mailing address is still associated with the subject
- Determining whether a property appears occupied for an authorized matter
- Resolving conflicting address records from different sources
- Refreshing an address that was developed months earlier
What research may include
- Address currency and association indicator review
- Contact-point plausibility assessment
- Conflicting-record reconciliation
- Property status indicator research for authorized matters
- Documentation of the verification basis and date
What this service does not include
- Physical surveillance or stakeouts
- Pretext calls or misrepresentation to obtain information
- Tenant-screening determinations or eligibility decisions
- Entering or inspecting a property

How the process works
- 1
Intake and purpose review
We confirm who is requesting the research, the matter it relates to, the jurisdiction, and the intended use before any work begins.
- 2
Scope and quote
You receive a written research scope, an estimated delivery window, and pricing so expectations are defined up front.
- 3
Structured research
An analyst works the assignment through a documented workflow using lawful public-record and open-source sources.
- 4
Verification and review
Findings are cross-checked against independent indicators, and anything that cannot be corroborated is labeled as unverified.
- 5
Reporting
You receive organized findings with source notes, confidence indicators, limitations, and recommended next steps.
Potential deliverables
- Verification summary with a current/uncertain/unsupported determination
- Basis for the determination and record dates
- Alternate address candidates when the primary is unsupported
- Limitations statement
Limitations and compliance
Verification reflects what records supported on the date of research. It is not a physical confirmation of presence, and property professionals may not use our research to make regulated tenant-screening decisions.
All case requests are reviewed for a lawful and authorized purpose. TracePoint Forensics reserves the right to decline any request that does not meet its compliance and ethical standards.
