Alachua County is known for its vibrant rental market fueled by the University of Florida, Santa Fe College, and a growing community of professionals and families. With that demand comes turnover, and when tenants leave behind unpaid balances, landlords and property managers are left holding the bag. Advanced Collection Bureau is here to step in with proven rental debt collection strategies tailored for this area.
Recovering unpaid rent in Alachua County can feel like sitting on I-75 near Archer Road during football season: long, frustrating, and never-ending. That’s where Advanced Collection Bureau comes in. We specialize in helping landlords, apartment communities, and property managers across Gainesville, Newberry, and High Springs recover past-due rent quickly and compliantly.
Whether you manage student apartments near UF’s campus or residential rental units closer to Haile Plantation, our team uses advanced skip tracing, credit reporting, and over 25 years of experience to get results. We credit report twice a month, making sure former tenants are motivated to resolve their debts before their next lease, job, or loan application.
As a Florida-licensed collection agency, we know the unique challenges of this rental market. Between seasonal student turnover, a competitive housing market, and high rental demand, landlords here can’t afford to waste time chasing debts.
It’s a bit like trying to find parking in downtown Gainesville on a Friday night—you’ll circle forever with no guarantee of success. Let us take that chase off your plate. We’ve helped property managers from student housing complexes near UF to suburban landlords in Alachua streamline collections and reduce bad debt write-offs.
We don’t just chase debts, we recover them. Our team uses advanced skip tracing, direct but respectful communication, and contingency-based pricing so you never pay unless we collect. With ACB, landlords gain peace of mind knowing each account is handled with professionalism and compliance.
Take, for example, a property manager near Archer Road who struggled with dozens of student tenants skipping out after graduation. After placing those accounts with ACB, they saw a significant recovery rate that put money back into their business without draining staff time.
Trying to collect unpaid rent on your own is like tackling the lines at Paynes Prairie on a Saturday—overwhelming and time-consuming. With ACB, you’ll have a clear path forward, and we’ll do the hard work for you.

"Matt at Advanced Collection Bureau assisted me with settling my debt with a poorly managed apartment complex.
After speaking to him for a few minutes he was able to send me the bill that the apartment complex never did."
"What a pleasant phone call I had with Jim! He was friendly, shared with me new laws regarding medical bills and my credit, as well as taking my bill down.
I paid it off today and on 2/1, it will disappear from my credit report. Woot! Thank you Mr. Richards!"
"Sam was very friendly, had a great sense of humor and actually made the phone call very pleasant.
Forgot I was even paying a collection bill and felt like I was talking to a long time friend. Got to pay off the debt and got an email verification. Hope to never speak to you again Sam!"
