Tenant Skip Tracing handled by a licensed private detective agency

Tennessee landlords win eviction judgments every day and collect on a fraction of them, because by the time the court rules the tenant is gone. Tenant skip tracing locates former tenants for service of a collection suit, for garnishment once a judgment exists, and for the simple purpose of sending a lawful demand to a real address. Pinnacle uses licensed databases, utility and forwarding indicators, employment leads and field checks to find the current residence.

We serve individual landlords, property management companies and collection attorneys, and we operate within the FDCPA and Tennessee landlord-tenant law. We locate and verify; your attorney or agency handles contact about the debt.

Situations tenant skip tracing casework is built for

  • A judgment from General Sessions with no way to enforce it
  • Co-signers or guarantors who have also gone quiet
  • A tenant using a different name at a new property
  • Damage claims that exceed the deposit
  • Multiple skips across a portfolio that need batch tracing
