Finding an address by phone number is a great tool to know about

if you ever need to search for someone.
Private detectives use this technology to help them locate
missing persons
and now you can too.
How It Works
This appropriately-name technology is
called "Reverse Lookup." Typically when you use a phone book or
directory assistance, you search by a person's last name and you
get back the phone number and oftentimes, a corresponding
address.
A Reverse Lookup works just the opposite. To find an address by
phone number, you simply enter in a person's phone number and
get back an address. With the physical address of your missing
person in hand, you've got a great starting point for your
search.
For example, knowing the person's city and state of residence
enables you to search through countless local, state and
regional public records including real estate transactions,
bankruptcy information, divorce proceedings, business
associations and more. Even if the address is not current, you
likely can get enough information to take your search to the
next level.
Give It a Try
When you're ready to find an address by
phone number, fire up your Internet search engine and type in an
appropriate search phrase. In just a few moments, you'll find a
number of businesses that offer this type of service. From there
you need to read about each company, including the services it
offers and the associated costs, if any.
Some offer the ability to search cell phone numbers and pager
numbers, while others can only search land lines. Some can
search phone numbers that have been disconnected or that are
unlisted, and even toll-free and 900-numbers.
Just to prove that this technology really does exist, see if you
can find an address by your phone number. Type in your current
phone number, including the area code and await the results. Do
you see your name and address right before your eyes?
Conclusion
This technology is great for updating your
address database before mailing out your holiday greeting cards.
Or it can help you find out what has become of your former
coworkers. It can be used for many different purposes.
And now that you know it is possible to find an address by phone
number, you're free to use this knowledge any way you see fit.
