I gonna have to collect some articles, show him,  and see if he comes around.

I want to understand what are my options to collect tenants deposits and one month rent. 

Getting the judgment is typically the easy part - collecting on it is always the problem

I get a loser every once in a while but not often enough to make me stop collecting pet fees and a higher nightly rate than I was before.

If you are focused on getting multiple assets at once, consider this:1. you really don't have enough available capital to do this safely right now and you will buy cash flow properties with cap ex which you will need reserves for2. you need $15-20k in reserves for each property you buy so factor that in3. when you try to buy multiple properties to start, you end up missing the mark on your first one because you are collecting and not curating your portfolio

Live in one and rent the other while you collect rents.

That being said, I have never flipped a home before, so just hoping to collect some information for anything I might have overlook or need to know before I make the jump.

Never have rent collections that drag more than a few weeks.

When it comes down to it, let’s say that the child support income is less reliable than you initially thought, and you decide to evict a tenant and collect the balance due.

Does anyone have any recommendations on who to contact for collections?
