I mailed the judgement to The Housing Authority and they froze her voucher. 

  $782 collection balance 2008  Civil judgement for $3500.  

I think next time though I am going to try rent-prep as I like the idea of them looking up judgements and liens as well. 

Some have chosen to divert from the point he was attempting to make in order to respond with self-righteous statements of grandeur and non-judgement of others.FYI- proclaiming yourself above the use of a word instead of just responding to the question isn't just self-righteous, its also very telling.There is a difference between people being firm in their beliefs and self-righteous, there is nothing wrong with being firm and confident...but if you really are then you don't need the "Shut up and listen to me" attitude that turns if from one to the other.I have found VERY FEW who are arrogant and stubborn are also successful and if they are telling you flat out thats how they are with their attitude on display, you should thank them for not wasting your time.

I've collected only about $100 of court ordered judgements against deadbeat tenants. 

Try to split it into two payments (half to move in).Yep, they either overspent and can't do 5th grade math so had too many bounced checks or they have judgements against them and money in the bank will be scarfed. 

Your RE experience does not even require you to do that so it must just be the judge mental nature that I always hear people say RE investors have.

My thing is I've put a lot of personal posts about tenant judgements, collections, and evictions.

Now Bob doesn't have it to get Phil arrested, but after talking to his attorney he does have enough to sue Phil, get a judgement, and then garnish wages to eventually get paid back.

I also know that - if proven - we stand to win a judgement higher than our fraud-related loss.I’ve been ready to go since the day we closed on the sale, and so - initially - was my business partner, once we confirmed that we have a case, and in what jurisdiction(s), based on terms of the contract and facts of the matter.
