Skip Tracing- which do you reccomend?

I’m going to switch my skip tracing from Whitepages. To say the least, it’s been pretty bad.

I'm looking for reccomendations on skip tracing sites that you have used and how they compare to others. For example: REI Skip, Skip Genie, TLO, Leap Sherpa, etc.

I currently run about 1000 records per month, but looking to increase that with a good tracer and better systems in place (RVM, Podio, Mojo).

I do understand that TLO, LexisNexis, Sherpa are expensive and you have to be approved- is it worth it? How is the quality of data vs something like REI Skip or Genie?

Thanks in advance!

I built started Skip Genie specifically for real estate investors several years ago.  

The only data you’ll find comparable to ours is TLO.   With the ability to do single searches and bulk searches as well as a weekly coaching call I do for our members, we’re truly a one of a kind skip trace service.   

If you want to get a bit of my background you can search “Larry higgins skip tracing” on YouTube and you can find several podcasts I’ve done explaining data and skip tracing.   Some of them have pretty good useful info in them for strategies and how to maximize the use of the data.  

Also, we’re running a special right now for .13 cent bulk searches you might be interested in.   Not to mention an announcement coming out in next 2-3 days that I can’t wait to make


Good Luck 👍
