Take advice from someone who knows the tenant debt collection business:  Your debt recovery may depend on what you do before the tenant moves in!

Get the right information from your prospect before they move in, and you will always increase your debt recovery on the back end.

TIP NUMBER THREE

Bank Accounts!

Make a photocopy of a prospect’s check, and the rent check every month

  • That way, you will have the right information for recovery, and you may discover a secondary bank account or other changes crucial to collection. 
  • If this person skips owing money, a record of their current back account numbers can spell the difference between successful collection and no collection at all.
