Customized Products
Our goal is to give the client complete control over the services they request from us. That’s why we offer fully customizable products for each client, down to the most minute details. To accomplish this, the client is provided with a list of search elements, allowing them to select the desired search elements and, if needed, add any specific requests/instructions within each element. We can also provide suggestions on what search elements are relevant based on needs, industry, investigation purpose, etc. For added convenience, we also offer standardized products if that’s the client’s preference.
Below are several examples on the type of customization available, which can be applied to literally every search element.
-
One client might want to prioritize certain civil case results, such as cases that resulted in monetary judgments against the subject. Another client might only want results for cases that lists the subject as the defendant but not as the plaintiff. Another client might only want active cases reported. Another client might want to exclude certain case types, such as landlord/tenant cases listing the subject as the plaintiff or small claims cases. This is on top of the scope (years searched) options. When combining all factors, the customization options for civil cases are numerous.
-
One client might only want unpaid tax liens reported while another client might want both paid and unpaid tax liens reported. Another client might want the scope of the search to be 7 years while another client might only want to go back 2 years. Another client might want a combination of the two.
-
One client might want all types of liens reported, whether that be municipal liens (i.e. water, sewage, trash, etc), HOA liens, mechanic’s liens, etc. Another client might not care for any of these type of liens while another client might only want mechanic’s liens.

The FCRA along with state specific regulations make it difficult to decipher exactly what adverse records can be reported along with determining the scope of years searched, as allowed by law. This is why most background companies have a standard scope of 7 years, because it is convenient and compliant. By possessing an in-depth understanding of all federal and state regulations, we can maximize the adverse records and scope of years searched while also being fully compliant legally. This means more adverse items might fall within the client’s purview, which may not be available with other background companies. At the request of the client, we can tailor scope of years searched for each search element.

Related to the, “Scope of Years Searched” example, we can also customize the adverse records parameters. Because most companies have standard guidelines for not only scope but adverse records parameters, the likelihood of adverse records not being reported when completely allowable by law increases. With us, we can extract as much adverse records as allowable by law, due to our in-depth understanding of all regulations. For example, some states allow criminal non-convictions to be reported. And there are various salary and transaction thresholds, where if met, allow more adverse records to be reported by law.

One client might want all properties owned by the subject to be reported while another client might want to limit properties that only reach a certain value. Another client might only want a certain type of property to be reported while excluding other property types.
