Occupancy verification for Georgia properties

Vacant on the spreadsheet is not vacant on the porch. We check indicators of occupancy and send photos so the next move is an eviction, a preservation visit, or a lock change — not a guess.

When you need this

Use this after a skip, a foreclosure, a stale vacancy, or a neighbor tip, before you send preservation or a locksmith. If you already know they are inside and behind on rent, skip to notices. If you already have a writ date, this page is the wrong product.

The next step

Send the address and what you already know. A coordinator confirms we can be there lawfully and returns a written price. If it looks occupied, we point you to the eviction path rather than a board-up.

Service area. Georgia only. We file, serve and run setouts across metro Atlanta and surrounding counties — Fulton, Gwinnett, DeKalb, Cobb, Clayton, Henry, Cherokee and Hall. If your property is outside Georgia we'll tell you rather than take the lead.

Common questions

Will you knock and ask who lives there?

When it is appropriate and lawful, yes. We do not invent a confrontation. The point is information, not a scene.

Can you swear they are gone?

We report what we observed. Court conclusions are for the file and, where required, licensed counsel — not a door-knock marketing claim.
