Expert Asset & Debtor Location Services

Skip tracing is the foundation of successful repossession. When borrowers default and attempt to hide vehicles or other collateral, finding them quickly is essential to minimizing your losses. Detroit Repo Company's skip tracing department combines advanced technology with traditional investigative techniques to locate borrowers and assets throughout Michigan and beyond.

Our skip tracers have access to comprehensive databases, public records, and proprietary information sources that most companies don't have. We don't just run basic database searchesβ€”we conduct thorough investigations using multiple resources, field verification, and strategic analysis to find people and assets that others can't locate.

Comprehensive Database Access

Our skip tracing team utilizes industry-leading databases and information resources to locate borrowers and collateral. We have access to data sources that go far beyond what's available through basic public records searches.

  • Credit header databases with current address information
  • Utility connection and disconnect records
  • Employment verification databases
  • Property ownership and rental records
  • Vehicle registration and title databases
  • Phone number and telecommunications records

Field Investigation & Verification

Database searches are just the beginning. The most effective skip tracing combines technology with old-fashioned detective work. Our field agents verify database information, conduct neighborhood canvassing, and gather intelligence that can't be found online.

We know that successful skip tracing requires both desk research and boots-on-the-ground investigation. Our team follows leads, interviews neighbors and associates, and uses strategic surveillance to locate borrowers and collateral when database searches come up empty.

What We Can Find

Our skip tracing services can locate various types of information and assets:

  • Current residential addresses and living situations
  • Workplace locations and employment details
  • Vehicle locations and parking patterns
  • Contact information for borrowers
  • Associate networks and relative contacts
  • Hidden assets and secondary vehicles
  • Out-of-state relocations and address changes

Turnaround Time

Speed matters in skip tracing. The longer a borrower has to hide assets, the harder they become to locate:

  • Initial database searches completed within hours
  • Comprehensive reports delivered within 24-48 hours
  • Field verification scheduled based on lead quality
  • Real-time updates as new information is discovered
  • Ongoing investigation for difficult cases
  • Priority service available for urgent assignments

Standalone Skip Tracing Services

While most of our skip tracing work supports our repossession services, we also offer standalone skip tracing for clients who handle their own recoveries or need location information for other purposes. Our comprehensive reports provide all the information you need to locate borrowers and collateral, presented in a clear, actionable format with confidence ratings for each data point.

Advanced Skip Tracing Techniques

Successful skip tracing requires more than just running someone's name through a database. Our team uses sophisticated techniques that combine multiple information sources, strategic analysis, and persistent investigation to find people and assets that others give up on.

Multi-Source Verification

We never rely on a single data point. Every piece of information is verified through multiple sources to ensure accuracy. An address that appears in one database might be outdated, but when the same address appears across utility records, credit reports, and employment verification, we know we've found solid intelligence. This multi-source approach dramatically improves our success rate and reduces false leads.

Pattern Analysis & Predictive Intelligence

Our experienced skip tracers don't just look at current dataβ€”they analyze patterns to predict where borrowers might go. If someone has family in another state, friends in a particular city, or previous addresses in specific neighborhoods, we investigate those connections. Understanding human behavior and relationship patterns often leads to successful locations when straightforward database searches come up empty.

Strategic Communication

Sometimes the most effective skip tracing involves strategic phone calls to associates, relatives, and neighbors. Our team knows how to gather information through conversation without violating regulations or alerting the borrower. We obtain forwarding addresses, work locations, and asset whereabouts through careful, compliant communication with people in the borrower's network.

Ongoing Monitoring

For difficult cases where initial investigation doesn't produce immediate results, we set up ongoing monitoring. We watch for new database entries, address changes, utility connections, employment records, and other triggers that indicate the borrower or asset has surfaced. This persistent approach often succeeds weeks or months after the initial assignment when borrowers think they're safe from discovery.
