Learn how to discover real property, vehicles, and financial assets. ## What Is an Asset Search? An asset search is a comprehensive investigation designed to identify and document the assets owned by an individual or business entity. This includes real property, vehicles, business interests, bank accounts, investment accounts, and other valuable holdings. Asset searches are commonly used in judgment enforcement, divorce proceedings, estate settlement, business due diligence, and pre-litigation assessment to determine whether a lawsuit is worth pursuing. ## Types of Assets We Search Our asset search covers real property records in all 50 states, vehicle ownership and registration records, business entity filings, UCC filings, judgment and lien records, and bankruptcy filings. Each search is tailored to the specific needs of your case. For financial asset discovery, we offer bank account searches and brokerage account searches that identify accounts at major financial institutions, providing the information needed for bank levies and asset seizure. ## When to Order an Asset Search Order an asset search before litigation to assess whether the defendant has assets worth pursuing. Order after obtaining a judgment to identify assets for garnishment, levy, and lien placement. In divorce cases, asset searches help ensure equitable distribution by uncovering hidden or undisclosed assets. Our asset reports are formatted for legal use and include source documentation that can be used in court proceedings. ## Related Services [Asset Property Search](/services/asset-property-search)[Vehicle Registration Search](/services/vehicle-registration-search)[Employment Search](/services/employment-search) ## More Guides [ ### What Is Skip Tracing?
