It’s a fairly sophisticated operation, with an unusually long time lag between first identifying the unclaimed funds, tracking the beneficiaries, obtaining a contract from said beneficiaries, gathering all the documents needed for “proof”, dealing with numerous government agencies, and finally hopefully having your client receive the funds and you getting paid.

If I was in your situation, I'd look et the situation based on profitability, liquidity (or rather the lack thereof) and risk.1.

Hi all,I have an ex-tenant that owes back rent and damages after they left that the security deposit doesn't cover.I read some forums here and am getting some mixed signals on the process of collecting debt.The way I read it is you can just go to a debt agency with in my case the signed lease and also the security deposit transmittal showing what's owed and the collections agency can legally take it from there.

So it's difficult to conceive of selling them at these kinds of discounts.So my question for Marco is, are you operating in markets where this strategy is not possible because of a lack of deals?  

SOME OFFICES HERE AND THERE GO ROGUE AND DIRECT A MORE TRADITIONAL ASPECT OF THEIR AGENCY (HOWEVER, THE FRANCHISORS OF THE COMPANY PROMOTE THAT WORKING WITH INVESTORS SHOULD NEVER BE IGNORED- THEY HAVE A 3 HOUR SEMINAR FOR THEIR NEW AGENTS COVERING EVERYTHING FROM ASSIGNMENTS TO DOUBLE CLOSES (YES)!

If the report is from a reputable credit reporting agency and includes all the information I require, I see no reason not to accept it.

The CMA report I received from my agent is lacking similar rental comps and data, and my property manager does not have any rentals in the area.

I had my fare share of financial modeling and asset management and can say I know how to analyze deals and asset manage very well.But, I was not too involved in the closing phases of the deals (lawyers, reports, debt placement, contract negotiations, parts of the DD...) so I lack knowledge in those parts, which I make up for in reading ton of materials and listening to podcasts.• After that I worked for three years as a management consultant at McKinsey where I sharpened my business acumen, problem-solving, storytelling, and presentation skills.

Almost all complaints are surface mold, caused by lack of ventilation, and easy to deal with.

So a general lack of knowledge about the business and access to deals.
