Do-it-Yourself Background Investigations - Using Public Records to Find Exactly What You Need

People are more careful these days. You. Me. Just about everyone. Whether it's because the media has alerted us to the many dangers we might face on any given day, the increasing population in metropolitan areas, our increasing reliance on third-party providers, or any of a number of other factors, people are generally more suspicious these days.

As just one example, any parent of a young child can tell you just how difficult it is hiring a nanny or babysitter, choosing a day care provider, or finding a school. Personal recommendations are a godsend, but don't come along nearly as often as they are needed. So some personal digging is required. Maybe you have someone you'd like to know more about. A teacher? A new romantic partner, or a teenager's older boyfriend? A house cleaner or gardener?
?
One option is to contact an investigation firm to conduct a thorough background check. Depending on the cost of the background check, you'll get information like birth and marriage records, residences, driving records, property records, and so on. All of this information is public record, and anyone can obtain it, providing one is willing to put forth the effort of visiting (sometimes online, often in person) court records offices to locate that information.?
?
While it's not hard, it can take some time, as these records might be strewn across many counties or jurisdictions, which makes compiling a complete profile difficult. Thanks to the digitization of all of these records, you can now perform a complete public records search in a matter of minutes, and you'll access exactly the same information that a professional investigation agency will access.
?
The advantages of this do-it-yourself approach are many-fold:
1) it's inexpensive, often carrying a price tag of $30 to $40 for unlimited searches;
2) because one search usually leads to another, you can perform many searches in a short period of time;
3) the databases used are extensively crossed referenced, so you can pull out just about any public record from any jurisdiction in the U.S. in minutes.
?
A large part of the cost savings is due to the fact that you've cut out the middle man from the transaction (the investigative firm), meaning that you are not paying for someone else's labor, you are not paying markup or overhead costs, you are not paying profit margins, and so on.
?
Do-it-yourself background checks are quick, inexpensive, and easy. It pays to be more careful than ever these days, and digitized public records databases are just another tool in our protection arsenal.
