    How much information could a private eye find out about a person with nothing more than a name and address?

    Absolutely everything. The address is the important one though.

    Legally or illeagally? ;)

    But for a start:

    - Knowing where you live means a person can check your bins. So pps, d.o.b. all that stuff can be obtained if you dont dispose of documents carefully.
    - Most people tell so much about themselves on facebook. (Im sure facebook is a private eye's dream now)
    - Pretty much any movement you make can be noted. After all, person knows where you live.

    I could go on :p

    I'm guessing the OP is trying to track down a former tenant that owes them rent.

    Would I be wrong?

    They could probably figure out the sex of the person.

    I like the Philip Marlowe type of private dick, Humphrey Bogart carried the character very well.

    That's the kind of guy I want investigating for me..

    With some of The PIs I have came across here you'd be lucky if they could find their way out of a paper bag....
