Details that these reverse address lookup services provide include the current and past owners, phone numbers associated with the address, physical location information such as square footage and bedroom count, and the owners’ relatives.
Reverse Address Lookup Sites
Many websites are built specifically for reverse lookup functionality. Visit any of the reverse address lookup services in this article to learn more about who lives at an address.
Truthfinder
Use the Truthfinder reverse address lookup service to browse by city and state, or search for the exact address. The results show the first and last name of all possible residents, past and present, with their ages and possible relatives. Select Open Report next to any name in the list of results to read more about the person, including whether the person has a criminal record. Note, however, that not all the data in the report is free.
Whitepages
With Whitepages, the old phone book standby is on the web and ready to fulfill your information needs. Enter the address you’re investigating, and Whitepages comes back with who lives there, the owner’s estimated age, their phone number, other associated addresses, and a map of the neighborhood. This basic information is free, but if you want more, check out the sponsored links on the results page.
Intelius
Intelius provides tidbits of information for free, but you’ll have to pay for anything else. Visit the link, type the address in the Current/Previous Address text box, then enter the city and state in the City and/or state text box. The reverse address lookup results from Intelius reveal the bedroom count, the home and lot size square footage, and the year the home was built. For a small fee, you can get more information such as the home value, ownership information, contact details, residents in the household, and information about neighbors.
AnyWho
Use AnyWho to find who owns the house or property when all you have is a physical address. After you enter the address, you’ll see results about current and past residents; more information is provided through Intelius.com.
Spokeo
Spokeo is another free reverse address lookup tool that seems to find unique information that some of the other websites in this article don’t supply. Spokeo provides the home value, the year the home was built, the living area square footage and lot size, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms, a map of the neighborhood, the heating and cooling details of the building, what type of parking the home has, nearby registered sex offenders, and separate sections for current owners and past residents (only last names are shown for free).
Infotracer.com
Another easy way to do a reverse address lookup to find a list of names for who lives at any address is with Infotracer. It takes a minute to gather all the names, but when it’s finished, you’ll get a list of all the current and past residents, their ages, and a list of their relatives. Additional information can be had by building a report, but that’s not free.
That’sThem
That’sThem is a unique reverse address lookup tool because it identifies loads of information for some addresses, such as the owner’s name, PO box, home phone, age, and even email address. It includes these details for everyone associated with that address. Background reports are an extra feature that runs their information through BeenVerified for a fee.
Can You Use a Search Engine for Reverse Address Lookups?
A search engine is amazingly useful for many tasks, but reverse address lookup isn’t one of them. An address search for a business cataloged in a search engine results in the business name and other information such as the hours the business is open and pictures of the building. The problem with using a search engine such as Google, Yahoo, or Bing, however, is that they’re not made to cross-reference addresses with homeowner information. Therefore, they’re not helpful to run a reverse address search on a private address. You can use Google or another search site to look for address information, but the results may not be very helpful.
How to Perform a Reverse Address Lookup on Google
To use Google for a reverse address search, type the address with quotation marks around the street and house number as well as around the city name, for example: “1500 broadway” “new york” It’s important to use quotation marks in some search queries because quotes help the search engine understand that various items of the address go together.
