This is bad advice. Stop telling landlords to go to collection agencies.....it is a waste of their time and very frustrating.

No collection agency is going to take a collection for a dead beat tenant. If You pay them..they will be glad to waste your money..but they are not even going to take a deadbeat collection for free....much less ever pay for one!

Only agency ever to agree happened only after I got a judgement and all the leg work was already done. Once you spend all your time chasing the tenant down..you might as well file yourself for a garnishment.

Calm down, no need to get grumpy. Google them yourself. Times have changed.

Thanks for your thoughts, KatieKate. I just wish there was some comeuppance for the two of them. Would love to give them a piece of my mind (not that they would care).
