Debt Collection Tactics

Having a debt collection entry can be detrimental to your credit score. A collection is a severely past due account that will make it difficult for you to get approved for new credit and loans. This is especially true for more recent collections. You can improve your credit score by deleting these collection accounts from your report or changing the status to “Paid” or “Current.”

The Relationship Between Collection Agencies And Debt Collection Attorneys

Collection agencies do their best to recover the debt owed to creditors, but sometimes this isn’t always possible. Collection agencies have restrictions placed on what they can and can’t do, so sometimes they need to turn to a debt collection attorney who will be able to help them recover the debts they cannot. Collection agencies will turn to a debt collection attorney because they have more means to recover the debt owed to the creditor than the collection agencies do.

Avoid Making Mistakes On Credit Card Applications

There are a lot of details that need to be filled in when applying, and there are many mistakes you can make.

Collecting Judgements

Business owners usually choose to pursue delinquent debt by suing the organization that is indebted, using the court to remedy the situation by seeking to be awarded a judgment. This is sometimes seen as the first step in the collection of past due business debts, though what many business owners don’t realize is that, because most courts do not enforce the judgment and repayment, the court ruling means little.

Why Mortgage Applications Get Denied

Perhaps the most common problem in today’s mortgage industry is a low loan-to-value ratio. This is the percentage of the loan total compared to the overall value of the property. For example, if you currently have a balance on your first mortgage of $200,000 and the appraisal comes back with a value of $250,000 then your loan-to-value ratio (LTV) is 80%. For a conventional loan, lenders require a minimum of 5% equity or a maximum LTV of 95%. Of course, the problem is that over the past 2 years a lot of areas of the country have seen properties decline in value by 10 to 20% or more causing many homeowners to have a high LTV ratio. Even if they are under 95%, many homeowners still find themselves having to settle for higher interest rates, PMI payments, or both.

Collecting Delinquent HOA Fees

No one enjoys forcing payment plans, filing liens, or even foreclosing on their neighbor’s house. But when homeowners do not pay their homeowners association fees, the rest of the neighbors have to pick up the slack through higher fees, special assessments, or reduced spending on community upkeep and amenities.
