Note - Sometimes it is necessary to enter the address of a property rather than the name of an owner since property deeds can be recorded in a variety of ways that don't always include the name one is looking for!

Thanks all!

But you still have to figure out if you are dealing with that person? Look up their residence and see if the check is being mailed to their residence. You can probably do this for any home they own as long as the local government puts their records on line.

The only issue with that is that if they own multiple homes and have their mail forwarded so the addresses could differ.
