FAQs - Versik

Can this dataset be joined to the Verisk Property insights datasets?

Yes. The ADDRID is usable for linking addresses between TCI Property and Consumer Address History. This allows you to join property information to the Address History data.

Is the data always in sequential order?

Not necessarily. Consumer Address History listings are not always populated in chronological order. It’d be best to first sort by EFFDATE and use that to identify current address.

How is the data sourced?

VMS data is sourced from wide-ranging authoritative sources, which include:

• Publicly available records (Census, USPS, publications, county assessors, etc.)
• Transactions/purchase data (retail channels, direct marketing, sales/service information, etc.)
• Self-reported information (survey respondents, warranty responders, event sign-ups, etc.)
• Proprietary sources
