Learn Which Eviction Notice To Use And When? 

Several important Landlord laws surround the timing of eviction notices, dispassion of back-rent and damages. By NOT knowing these timelines a Landlord could end up losing all money owed and actually paying the tenant for their inconvenience.

Learn About Judgment Docketing

If there is a chance that an ex-tenant may end up purchasing real estate within the next 10 years then it may be worth it to at least take a judgment against them and then docket the judgment.  Docketing a judgment is simple and puts a lien on any property owned by the debtor or acquired by the debtor.  The judgment will also accumulate interest at the rate of 8% per year.  Because of this some landlords will choose to sue the tenant, obtain a judgment, docket the judgment, and then just sit and wait. 

Learn What Necessary Information To  Ex-Tenant

To successfully collect money from tenants applications should at least contain the name and address of the applicant's employer, the name and address of the applicant's bank, and emergency contact information for the tenant's relatives or close friends.  But there are other vital components needed and some that may change. Learn what you need and how to get it at the Fort Wayne REIA meeting.
