Property management collections

Collections Built for Property Management Companies

Property management collections cover more than unpaid rent. Resident balances, move-out debt, eviction costs, and aging receivables all sit on the same portfolio ledger, and a partner built for property management should handle all four without adding work for your team.

Recovery built around how property portfolios actually work.

Elite Recovery Group (ERG) adapts strategy, outreach, and reporting to the portfolio type instead of forcing every account through a generic agency process.

Multifamily

High-volume recovery strategies for apartment communities and residential portfolios.

Student housing

Communication shaped around student account dynamics and seasonal volume.

Single-family

Sensitive recovery for individual rental properties that preserves tenant relationships.

Commercial properties

Commercial lease arrears and property-related debt handled with business-to-business protocols.

Every placement follows the same five-step sequence regardless of portfolio type, with published performance behind it.

Frequently asked

Property management collections questions, answered.

  • What portfolio types does ERG work with?

    Multifamily, student housing, single-family, and commercial properties, each handled with strategy and outreach adapted to that portfolio type, not a one-size-fits-all process.

  • Does ERG replace our property management team or software?

    No. ERG works alongside internal teams and existing systems as a specialist recovery partner, so property managers can stay focused on leasing, maintenance, and resident experience.

  • What's included in property management collections?

    Resident balances, move-out debt, eviction costs, and aging receivables: the full range of debt a property management portfolio accumulates, not unpaid rent alone.

  • What states can ERG collect in?

    WA, AZ, and OR today, with six more states underway for the 2026 expansion.
