Skip Tracing

Skip Tracing is the process of tracking someone who owes you money.

In order to successfully collect on a delinquent account, you have to locate the debtor. A debtor may relocate and/or have his telephone disconnected, believing they are leaving creditors with no immediate means of contact. However, skip tracing allows creditors to locate debtors through various outlets available to them.

A skip trace can be done for current address and phone, fictitious business names, social security death index, bankruptcies, judgements, liens, national property and deed transfers.

When should you skip trace?

• When mail is returned
• When the phone is disconnected

When consumers stray and leave debts behind, follow in their tracks!
