Missing Assets & Skip Tracing: Uncovering What’s Been Hidden
Assets tell a story—and sometimes, that story isn’t the one being told. Whether you’re navigating a divorce, chasing a debt, or conducting due diligence before making a major decision, I’m here to help uncover the truth. At Ranney Investigations, I specialize in identifying undisclosed assets, tracing hard-to-find individuals, and piecing together financial footprints with professionalism, accuracy, and discretion.
When someone hides assets or disappears to avoid responsibility, I don’t give up—I follow the trail and bring the facts into the light.
When Should You Consider an Asset Search or Skip Trace?
You may need this service if you’re facing any of the following situations:
Family Law & Divorce
Divorce can bring out hidden bank accounts, unreported income, or luxury assets stashed away under other names. I help uncover:
- Undisclosed bank and investment accounts
- Real estate or rental properties in alternate names
- High-value vehicles, boats, or collectibles
- Business interests or offshore holdings
If you suspect financial dishonesty, I’ll help you get the documentation you need for a fair outcome.
Debt Recovery & Legal Judgments
If a debtor is claiming they have “nothing,” but you know otherwise, I can help you prove it. My searches reveal:
- Properties, vehicles, and recreational assets
- Business affiliations and ownership structures
- Bankruptcy filings, liens, and other encumbrances
- Signs of financial misrepresentation or hidden income
This gives you the leverage needed to collect what you’re owed or enforce a court judgment.
Fraud or Financial Deception
Whether it’s personal or professional, some individuals go to great lengths to hide money and protect themselves from accountability. I look for:
- Assets transferred to third parties, shell companies, or family trusts
- Unreported income or undisclosed businesses
- Hidden real estate holdings, domestic or international
- Sudden changes in lifestyle or spending that don’t match claimed finances
You deserve the truth—and I’ll work to uncover it with discretion and care.
Business Due Diligence
Before you enter into any major business deal or partnership, it’s wise to verify what you’re being told. I can help uncover:
- Corporate asset holdings and liabilities
- Undisclosed bankruptcies, lawsuits, or debts
- Ownership structures and hidden affiliations
- Risk indicators that may not appear in public profiles
This ensures you make informed, strategic decisions—without blind spots.
What’s Included in the Process
Each asset or skip trace investigation is customized, but typically includes:
- Public Record Research: Real estate records, vehicle ownership, court filings, corporate documents, liens, and judgments
- Lifestyle Assessment: Observing spending habits that contradict claimed finances
- Corporate Investigations: Analyzing business ownerships and financial affiliations
- Skip Tracing Tools: Using databases, social patterns, and digital traces to locate individuals
- Verification and Cross-Referencing: Ensuring accuracy and connecting findings to the right person or entity
I never access confidential banking records or protected financial data—but I know how to build a compelling picture with what’s legally available.
Legal and Ethical Considerations
Everything I do is within the bounds of Canadian law and professional ethics. That means:
- I respect privacy laws, including PIPEDA
- I never engage in unauthorized access or deception
- My findings are fully admissible and legally obtained
- Your information and your case are kept 100% confidential
Integrity matters in this line of work—and you can count on mine.
