If garnishment there are other laws such as you can't garnish if they make under the poverty level or if above then generally only 25% of the check can be garnished at a time and if other creditors then the amount gets split down further each check.In some states some creditors are able to get money from the debtors tax refunds to pay some or all of the judgment.Now the debtor when getting a garnishment could leave the job and go to cash only or simply file bankruptcy to zero out their debts ( certain debts such as back child support, IRS taxes, and federal student loan debt) remain in many cases even with a bankruptcy.Some creditors get a judgment and sit on it hoping in future years they will want to clean up credit and contact them to settle.
Danny Mulvihill Jacksonville property managers and contractors?

All all I got to say is don't skimp in trying to find the cheapest contractor or the cheapest property manager.Also find one that will agree to start the eviction process the first time rent is past due more than 5 days.This sends a message that you are not going to put up with late rent and generally will only need to happen one time to get your point across.Florida is a transient state so it's fairly easy to get deadbeat renters out of your property.However if you prequalify your potential renters the right way you can avoid bad situations.Have the Property Management Company take a look inside the potential renter's car when they arrive to see the property, if it's a pigsty and they smoke (even if they say they will smoke outside), and most especially if they're also a Credit Criminal do not rent to them.But, do not turn away people who have recently gone through bankruptcy or a foreclosure or short sale who are trying to reestablish, because they can be some of the best longer-term renters out there right now.
