Marion Military Institute has trained cadets in the Perry County seat since 1842, and small town rentals fill the country around it. ACB helps Perry County landlords recover unpaid rent and tenant debt when a former resident leaves a balance behind.
Perry County lies in Alabama's Black Belt, with the county seat in Marion, the city of Uniontown near the western edge on U.S. Highway 80, and small communities such as Heiberger and Sprott in the rolling country north of Marion. The county seat is home to Marion Military Institute, which has prepared young men and women for civilian and military careers since 1842. Rental housing here is mostly single family homes, older duplexes, a few small apartment buildings and manufactured homes on rural lots, so many landlords are individuals with one to a dozen units. ACB works with those independent owners as well as property management companies, apartment communities, workforce housing providers and manufactured home communities.
The balances ACB helps recover include unpaid rent, lease break balances the lease supports, damage beyond the security deposit, utility and fee balances the lease assigns to the resident, and unpaid rental money judgments.
Marion Military Institute brings a rotation of cadets, faculty and staff to Marion, and some of them rent off campus. Other residents commute toward Selma, Demopolis or Tuscaloosa for work, and farm and forestry jobs pull workers in and out of the county with the seasons. Outdoor visitors come for places like Perry Lakes Park, which sits five miles east of Marion between the Marion State Fish Hatchery and the Barton's Beach Cahaba River Preserve. In a small market, a single unpaid account can take a real bite out of an owner's budget, which is why follow through matters.
Rental debt in Perry County behaves a bit like the Cahaba River shifting its course: the change is slow, and then one day the old channel is somewhere else entirely. ACB follows the FDCPA and applicable Alabama law on every account.
Evictions in Alabama are unlawful detainer actions under the Alabama Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, commonly filed in the District Court of the county where the property is located. The Perry County Circuit Clerk's unlawful detainer page describes these actions as the remedy for eviction in a landlord and tenant relationship and summarizes who may file them. A landlord may request possession and money damages together, but recovering the property and collecting a money judgment are separate steps. Collection is the step where ACB helps.
For property and assessment details, the Perry County public GIS site, which lists the county Revenue Commissioner, provides online map access to parcels. For any case specific question about filing, notice, jurisdiction or enforcement, talk with an Alabama attorney.
Keep the signed lease, a complete rent ledger, the move out statement with deposit accounting, photos and repair receipts, and a copy of any judgment. Good records are especially important for owners who manage rentals from out of town.
Yes. ACB offers nationwide service and uses skip tracing to help locate former residents after they move. Results depend on the information available, and no agency can guarantee a location.
No. Many Perry County rentals are owned by heirs or investors who live elsewhere, and ACB works with owners remotely. You can send the lease, ledger and move out statement from wherever you are.
No. ACB works on contingency, so there is no collection fee unless ACB collects. That makes it practical to place even a single rural account.
ACB is a Florida based agency with more than 25 years of experience and nationwide service. Skip tracing can help locate former residents, eligible accounts are reported to the credit bureaus twice monthly, and contingency pricing means there is no collection fee unless ACB collects. ACB does not promise a location, a report or a recovery on any account.
Take a hypothetical Marion owner who rents a two bedroom house to a family that relocates to Tuscaloosa halfway through the lease, leaving three months of rent and a lease break balance the lease supports. The owner sends ACB the lease, ledger and move out statement, and ACB takes on the skip tracing and outreach while the owner finds a new tenant. It is a bit like a cadet squad on a march: each member carries part of the load so nobody has to carry all of it. Work with ACB to place your Perry County accounts.

"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!"
