About Our Tenant Tracing Services

Strikes Trace Services was founded in 2014 by Chris Bane, a former UK enforcement agent (bailiff) with over two decades of experience in property dispute resolution. Our understanding of the property sector means we provide the tracing services you need to make a legal enforcement successful.

We are the sister company to Strikes Property Services – one of the UK’s leading property enforcement agents. This means our tenant tracing services maximise your chances of recovering what you’re owed.

Our approach is built on speed, accuracy and legal compliance. Whether you’re dealing with absconded tenants, rent arrears, or property damage, our team uses a deep-dive methodology to ensure you don’t waste time on “dead” leads.

Data mining

We comb through hundreds of independent data sources, including financial records, credit links, proprietary databases, and advanced search tools to locate individuals

Accuracy

If a match isn’t immediate, we re-run every trace up to 11 times to ensure a successful result. No stone is left unturned in locating the subject.

Enforcement-ready results

We specialise in locating individuals for CCJs, unpaid invoices, and the service of legal documents. Once the trace is complete, you are in the strongest position to instruct an enforcement agent.

What Kind of Tenant Tracing Service Do You Need?

The right trace depends on your urgency and the legal enforcement.

If you need to confirm a current residential address to start a claim or serve documents, our Standard Trace is the most cost-effective option. Our Fast Track Standard Trace gives you the same result but within 1-2 working days.

The Fast Track Enhanced Trace combines rapid results with a deep-dive into credit, property and insolvency data. It’s the best solution for debt recovery or meeting urgent court deadlines.

An Employment Trace is essential if you need to secure an Attachment of Earnings order. If you’re unsure whether a debtor has the assets to pay, our Pre-litigation Report offers a full financial breakdown.

We also offer International Traces for subjects who have left the UK.

I recently used Strikes Property Services Group to help resolve a complex tenant situation, and I honestly couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism, speed, and results.

From the very first phone call, the team was incredibly knowledgeable, reassuring, and proactive. They clearly explained every step of the process, from serving notices to securing possession, and handled everything with complete legal accuracy and attention to detail.

What stood out most was how responsive and efficient they were—every email and call was answered promptly, and I always felt fully supported. The enforcement process was carried out swiftly and respectfully, with minimal stress on my end.

Thanks to Strikes, the entire situation was resolved much faster than I expected, and I finally have peace of mind again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any landlord or property manager needing reliable, professional support with tenant issues or enforcement.

5 stars without hesitation – they truly are experts in their field.
