      • A Note From Hartman

        I am a Debt Collection Consultant specializing in Collections and Recovery. Without the BS. My clients come to me when they need the quickest and most efficient way to gain access to debt to help jumpstart their collection agency.

         

        I offer a no fluff, straightforward and tactful approach that doesn’t beat around the bush. Time is money, baby. I’m a great listener, but I am an action man. I know the best ways to solve a problem fast and with precision. I work off of facts, action, and the cold hard truth. I recover success stories. A little harsh at times? Maybe. But I see it as pure bliss.

         

        It’s the honesty you want, and it’s definitely not the honesty you are currently getting.

         

        This is not a quick-fix PR stunt either. My work and how I work with my clients allow me to filter out who is the best match for my methods. We don’t have to sit here and play tea time, wasting precious time when we could be making deals that lead to financial gains, which is what you really want anyway.

         

        At home, I’m a surprisingly peaceful family man living in Idaho, collecting classic cars and Mustangs. A husband, a father, and still called “Hartman!” by all my friends. But enough about me, let’s air out that dirty laundry and get you rolling into your newest success story. I am here to help, but I can only take you so far. After all, you can’t blame the doctor if you don’t take your medicine.

         

        Yours Truly,

        Jeffery “Don of Debt” Hartman

      • FAQ on Debt Buying & Starting an Agency

        The questions below are the most frequently asked when it comes to debt buying and selling, starting a collection agency or purchasing an existing one.

        Before you buy debt, take your time. Learn the process first. Don't buy debt impulsively.

        If you have questions about a debt portfolio, such as chain of title, age, the creditor, and a quick tip on collection strategy, I am always willing to look at a masked file and share my thoughts with you.

        Where can I buy debt portfolios?

        You can go directly to the original creditor and buy from them, or you can buy through a reseller or broker. You can try your luck on the auction debt trader sites, but you'll be bidding against the top expert buyers. If you need help, I can send you a list of well-respected and trusted " Insider" brokers & resellers who will guide you.

         

        * If you are new at buying debt, you might want to team up with a professional debt buyer to learn from them and help mitigate your risk on the first few buys.

        How to find the right collection agent?

        Before buying your first debt portfolio, you want to start interviewing debt collection agencies and find out what asset class they do well with. After that, you find a good collection agency partner to service your accounts; make sure they are licensed in the states you buy the debt in. Also, it's good if they are a part of a credited organization, ACA or RMAi, and lastly, check google and read all the customer reviews. You don't want to place and get shut down for generating too many lawsuits that might be short on remits or get you sued.

        How much can I spend and still get a good return on my investment?

        To see the results and you're just starting, I would recommend you spend anywhere between the $5,000 + $50,000 range. If you're going to spend less than 5000, make sure you're getting a decent volume of accounts; I would recommend buying an older shelved portfolio with an average balance of 1500 or more.

        Can I Buy My Own Debt?

        Short answer. Yes, but you need to buy your debt in a larger pool of debts.

        What type of debt should I buy first?

        First, you want to purchase a portfolio with an older charge-off date and a lower principle balance. This is because lower principle and older charge off means a higher rate of return and so has more potential for providing a profit. The best place to start looking for a reliable broker or reach out to your local bank or credit union's or car dealerships / BHPH, dentist, doctor's office, or law firms, etc.

        Finding a Debt Collection Consultant

        I provide business owners with as-needed professional debt collection, accounts receivable management services & consulting that is dedicated to reducing bad debt and slow receivables in an affordable way.

        How to start a debt collection agency? Where to start?

        If you're looking to start your own debt collection agency, several factors make the process difficult. You will need a large amount of capital and patience when starting this business because it is highly regulated by federal law.

        How much do collection agencies buy debt for?

        Purchasing debt through an online auction bidding process is difficult that is why its buying from a private party or direct from the lender. Debt buyers pay on average 3.50 cents for every dollar for debt, but this changes for older debts because they are less likely to be collected on.

        What is debt collection practices act?

        The Fair Debt Collection Practices Act is a law that regulates how creditors and collectors interact with consumers.

        Is a debt collection agency profitable?

        Debt collectors are always in demand, and for good reason. Debt can be pretty annoying when you're struggling with it yourself- but having an expert handle all of that hassle makes things a lot easier! A debt collection business owner must first obtain customers from originators (lenders), as well as buyers who purchase debts on their behalf to locate the debtor(s). They then need enough energy/time put into communication channels like text messages, phone calls, or emails so they don't get lost amongst other messages; skip tracing where possible via court records if necessary - contact should not go ignored until every last effort has been exhausted.

        How to sell a debt to a collection agency?

        The process is simple you first have to gather all your debts in a secured excel file, then make sure you have all the necessary information, origination date, last payment amount, DOB, SSN, address, email, phone number, co-signer information, if any, and signed contracts of all the debtor you wish to sell.
