It depends on which state you live in, but for the most part, a search warrant is not needed if the following conditions are met: 1. There is a probable cause (i.e. the officer sees 6 sets of antlers poking out from under a tarp on your property) 2. The officer sees or obtains the probable cause legally (is it visible from the street, or did he/she observe you carrying out the elements of a crime) 3. The officer has the legal authority (i.e. is he/she a peace officer or otherwise authorized in your state) The officer can also get consent from the property owner by asking, then of course, a search warrant is not needed. Most investigators will not execute a search without a warrant unless they believe that there is a danger of destruction of evidence or there is a danger to public safety. It often takes only a phone call to obtain a telephonic warrant.
