NeighborWho

What NeighborWho knows about you

NeighborWho is the property layer on top of BeenVerified's people-search engine. Type an address, get the owner's name, the property's estimated value, the sale history, a list of likely neighbors, and — because BeenVerified is the parent — phone numbers and email addresses cross-referenced from the people database.

That last part is what makes NeighborWho unusual. Most property brokers stop at the deed. NeighborWho keeps going. The result page reads like a dossier built around a street address.

The data is pulled from county records, MLS feeds, and the same commercial broker feeds BeenVerified uses for everything else.

Why it matters if you're on the job

Property brokers work address-first. Anyone with your street address pulls the whole household. NeighborWho compresses the work further: address, owner, value, phone, email — one page, one search.

For a sworn officer, the phone-number bridge is the dangerous part. A doxxer who finds your house on NeighborWho also gets your cell. For a firefighter or paramedic who keeps the job and the home life on opposite sides of the wall, that wall just came down.

The Google indexing means the listing surfaces under your name, not just your address. A search for "John Smith [town]" pulls the property record and the household phones in the same hit.

How to opt out

NeighborWho's opt-out form lives on its support site. Search the listing, copy the URL, submit the form, click the verification email. Standard intake — except for one quirk worth knowing.

NeighborWho is owned by BeenVerified. The two share data. Filing the BeenVerified opt-out at beenverified.com/app/optout/search suppresses your record across both properties in most cases, but the cleanest path is to file both — separately, same day. If you only file one, the other can keep displaying.

Expect 2 to 3 weeks. The verification email is the step that trips most people. Skip the click and nothing happens.

Steps are in the optOutSteps field above.

How long until you're back

Six months is what we see. The BeenVerified data feed re-syncs aggressively, and any change to the underlying people record — a new phone, a relative's address update — can trigger a refresh on the property side.

For officers who own the home, the durable fix is at the county level. Daniel's Law in New Jersey, Texas Government Code 25.025, and Florida 119.071 all let covered first responders redact home address from the underlying public records that brokers like NeighborWho re-pull from. The opt-out suppresses what's there now. The county redaction stops the next refill.

What we do that's faster

We file both the NeighborWho and BeenVerified opt-outs, click the verification emails, and re-check every two weeks. When the listing comes back, we re-file. We also flag whether you qualify for statutory redaction in your state and walk you through the county-level filing. Same drill across 200+ broker sites in parallel.
