1

Enter Your VIN or Property ID

Type the 17-character Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or a property address / county parcel ID into the search box on our homepage. Not sure where to find your VIN? It's on your dashboard, door jamb sticker, or vehicle title.

2

Preview the Record

Before any payment, we show you a preview of the record we found — make, model, year, and location — so you can confirm it's the right vehicle or property before proceeding.

3

Choose Your Report Type

Select Basic or Premium for either a vehicle or property report. Compare features side by side and pick the level of detail you need. All plans include instant delivery.

4

Secure Payment via Stripe

Pay safely using Visa, Mastercard, American Express, or PayPal. All transactions are processed by Stripe with 256-bit TLS 1.3 encryption. We never store or see your card details.

Instant Report Delivery

Your full certified report appears on-screen immediately and is emailed to you as a downloadable PDF — typically within 30 to 60 seconds of payment.

6
