State Specific Question About: WISCONSIN (WI)
I have several judgements for money and the tenants have filled out the financial disclosure forms claiming that they are below the poverty level. Does that mean they will never have to pay me back or can I still garnish their wages? --165.189.xx.xx |

Depends. I'm collecting on judgements from "Lower" income people. I suppose it depends on your state laws. I use a Collection Attorney, that's all he does and he's got the personality of a Bull Dog --70.252.xxx.xxx |

I had a garnishment order served on an ex tenant and they lied about their number of dependents so that they fell below the poverty line. My attorney either subpoenad or threatened to subpoena their tax returns. They dropped their claim of 7 dependents real fast and I have been getting nice sized garnishment checks now for months. --98.111.xxx.xxx |

One can not get blood from a stone: So if you rented to people of less then stable assets
Then your answer maybe NO you will never see your monies absent them hitting the lotto
Now if you think they have assets but are hiding them then hire a lawyer but make sure you can collect or you will be throwing good monies after bad

Sell the judgment. There are attorneys collecting judgments and sitting on them waiting for the economy to recovery. Then, they will hit the people with levies and garnishments. --70.22.xxx.xxx |

I read so many don't want to rent to college students, who most end up with a good income.
We are all extending credit to someone, it is easy to sell someone something when they have no real expectations of paying for it.
A LL opens many doors to Liability when he opens his rental doors --68.58.xxx.xx |

Good luck trying to sell a judgment from a landlord/tenant debt to a collection agency for anything more then pennies on the dollar if you even get that deal versus a % of the collection
In the collection world landlord/tenant debt is the lowest rated debt on the market, since a majority of time the people who have the judgment against them: go pay check to pay check, jump jobs, have no assets,; thus its usually not worth the time and energy to even try and collect let alone pay you for the judgment
In reality if the ex-tenants are collectable then you can do it yourself, if they are not collectable i.e. judgment proof then no collection agency is going to take the debt, let alone pay you for it, at best offer a % of the collection which will probably not happen, you have a better chance of them wining the lotto and collecting then believing a collection agency is going to pull through the majority of times
But who knows maybe your person has hidden assets and does not go paycheck to pay check
