As a landlord you may need to trace tenants who have just abandoned your property without any notice or warning or have left without handing you a forwarding address. If the tenant owes you money then you need to trace them as quickly as possible so that you can start legal proceedings to recover money owed to you or damages and compensation through the Small Claims Court.
The best way to trace a tenant is to get as much information about them as is possible, such as date of birth and employer's details. You could also search the vacated property for any information that would be useful in tracking them down. You can then give this information to a specialist company to trace them on a 'no find - no fee' basis The cost of your tracing fee should be added onto the claim.
Interestingly, most people are traced within a 40 mile radius.
