Many
local state agencies offer information or data about consumers and
companies. Sometimes you may need to pay for these records, but in many
cases they are FREE (Usually the agency's website offers many of these
records at no charge).
In regards to consumers you can attain records of recent housing purchases or foreclosure auctions.
In regards to companies you can attain records on fictious names, occupational licenses, business owners and tax liens.
Contact your local court house to find out the types of data that is offered to the public for FREE or for purchase.
