Find Hidden Divorce Assets

If you suspect your husband is hiding income and assets, these tools and search suggestions may help you uncover his stash.

1. Get Your Equifax Credit Report Now!
When you receive your report look for any debts like mortgages, promissory notes or secured loans held in your husband’s name or your joint names. Track down a copy of the original debt document, which may be on file at your county’s Assessor’s office. Review the document to identify the secured assets, if any.

2. Review your husband’s income and business tax returns, any personal or business financial statements he maintains and any loan applications he prepared before, during and after marriage. Look for income and assets listed or referenced in the documents to determine how the loan proceeds were used (i.e. to purchase a yacht in the Cayman Islands).

3. Run Court Record Searches. Look for bankruptcies, business lawsuits, personal injury lawsuits and divorce records involving your husband. Any court records may contain information about assets he owns or received through court judgments.

4. Do a Search by Social Security Number to find any miscellaneous, telling public records.

5. Determine the real value of your home or any other real estate you own. ElectronicAppraiser.com can do this for you online or you can hire a real estate broker or appraiser to do an onsite inspection and appraisal.
