@Bruce Lynn thanks for the feedback.

It is sort of more due to Covid moratorium and little due to PM's role. We are going through make ready of the house.

Thanks again.

@Kyle Mccaw thanks a ton for your response.

Do you happen to have more info on Texas rent relief program? Please do share.

This tenant were there for more than 2 years and been paying regularly however due to COVID moratorium, they went on the other side and we couldn't evict until recently.

But indeed I learned a lot in the entire process to create better tighter system.

Any comment on, can I reach out to tenant myself and offer a deal?

Hi Experts,

Need some guidance. Property is in Mckinney (Dallas) Texas. Tenant is evicted after following all the legal procedures by my property manager. They haven't paid 5+ months of rent and on top of it they trashed the house. Few questions.

1. 1. Can I (landlord) legally contact the tenant and negotiate? I am sensing that my property manager is not doing the excellent there.  Are there any pit-holes that i should be aware of?
2. 2. My property manager is going to send it to collections agency but she is convinced that they will NOT make any payments. Is there anything that I / landlord can do to get paid? Do we have any other routes? 
3. 3. Given point #2, should i offer discount on the balance and get paid reasonable amount? Share your experience
4. 4. Once filled to collection agency, do i get any update on the case? Or only my property manager will get the updates? What happens if i decide to change the property manager in near future and collection case is still ongoing? 

This is my first eviction experience so appreciate your insights / tips / suggestions here.

Thanks//
