@Taylor Comer I second the advice about Google voice - free and super useful - you can forward it to your cell, have it be just on answering machine, customize greetings, etc. when the number gets called both my phone and my wife's phone ring and when a message is left I get a text and an email transcript.

I run everything using my cell phone, however I feel that I am getting close to the breaking point.

She was awesome and even gave out her cell phone, and she is a landlord also.  

If they pay for other bills online or in store (Wal-mart, 7-11, etc) for cell phone, insurance, or cable they should be able to pay rent as well.

I also suspect the vast majority of this company’s income is in selling folks like you the system and Very little from actually collecting the surpluses for people.One thing you guys need to realize, at least in my area, there are only one or two firms making any money at this, and it’s only part of what they do.AND....those few people that are Acrually making any money at this are contacting the people owed a surplus THE DAY OF THE SALE, by email and cell phone.  

, the results were not favorable and the system recommended a decline based on low income and 4 accounts under collectionI then contacted the applicant and told her that we had declined her application for these very reasons, to which she responded that her income was over $100k/yr, enough to qualify, and that she had fallen into a rough patch and financial challenges in the 3 years leading up to her husband's passing due to pancreatic cancer. 

@Shawn WestbrookFacebook, Zillow, Craigslist, Google, and a cell phone.

Look into water meters with wifi that track right to your cell phone.

@Kimberly Kesterke This is 2020 where everyone uses a cell phone to call for service.

I only insure for catastrophes like cancer not colds and flu meaning I keep a $5000 deductible.
