not by a long shot the cat was handed over to the animal control officer .By having animal control pick up the cat , and then the tenant retrieving her cat I have proof of the lease violation .As far as it not being good business , Letting the woman keep the cat in the house has the potential to cost me big dollars , especially since she allowed the cat to go outside .

I'm going to be renting out my first town home and was wondering what are some of the methods people are using to retrieve rent?

Not my legal opinion, but if a tenant is unwilling to retrieve small items left behind in the unit after their lease has ended, it is considered garbage.  

I use CRS Data, courthouse retrieval service.

My next project with that is going to be figuring out how to setup my own database to query the data.I'd like to be able to get the same data from Rhode Island but dont see site similar to retrieve it from.

Seems like the city is trying to retrieve money and they know they won’t get it from the tenant.

I hope it hasn't made you change your mind on investing in real estate and I wish you success on retrieving your money.

The term itself is a reference to hunting dogs that would point to the location of birds and then retrieve them once the hunter had shot them.

My tenant had renters insurance, so my insurance company retrieved my deductible from the tenant's insurance company. 

Would you take this to a small claims court to try and retrieve some or all of the funds?
