Company Overview
NeighborWho is a company that helps people find information about properties and property owners. However, they do not provide private investigator services or consumer reports and are not a consumer reporting agency. They aggregate public records to compile in-depth reports on properties and people, which may include more information than you find on other sites like Zillow or Trulia.
You can use NeighborWho to find out how long someone has owned property, whether there have been any liens or foreclosures filed against it, the property's value, and much more. You can also use NeighborWho to look up people. Entering a name will bring up a list of results with basic information about each person, including their age, address, and known relatives.
You can then purchase an in-depth report on the person that includes information like criminal records, bankruptcies, marriage and divorce records, and more. If you're looking for information on your neighbors or properties in your neighborhood, NeighborWho is a great resource. You can explore available details on public records of people living nearby.
This wealth of information can be beneficial if you're considering buying a new home or need to know more about the people who live near you.
