Professional Occupancy Verification & Field Documentation
Empire National Document Services provides professional occupancy verification services for businesses, property professionals, lenders, insurance companies, property managers, and other organizations that need reliable information from the field.
Our occupancy verification assignments are designed to document observable indicators of occupancy and property use based on the specific requirements of the assignment.
What Is Occupancy Verification?
Occupancy verification is a field service used to document whether a property appears occupied, vacant, or otherwise in use based on observable conditions at the time of the inspection.
Depending on the assignment, our field representative may document exterior conditions, visible activity, property maintenance, vehicles, signage, and other observable indicators.
Occupancy verification does not determine legal residency, ownership, tenancy, or a person’s right to occupy a property.
What We Verify
Depending on the assignment instructions, we may document:
- Property address and location
- Occupied or apparently vacant condition
- Exterior property conditions
- Visible signs of occupancy
- Vehicles present at the property
- Exterior maintenance and upkeep
- Visible activity or signs of use
- Posted notices or signage
- Photographic documentation
- Date and time of the field visit
- Other specifically requested observations
