Where the Clear Fork of the Brazos cuts through rolling ranch land and the Fort Griffin Fandangle keeps frontier history alive every June, Shackelford County is a tight-knit ranching community with deep roots and a short supply of patience for unpaid rent. Advanced Collection Bureau works with Albany landlords and property managers to recover apartment lease debt and residential rental balances across Shackelford County.
Albany has served as county seat since 1874, earning the slogan "Home of the Hereford" for its deep ties to the cattle industry. The town sits at the junction of State Highway 6 and U.S. Highway 283, linking ranches and oil operations to Abilene thirty miles to the south. The Fort Griffin State Historic Site northwest of town preserves the ruins of a post-Civil War cavalry fort and is home to the Official State of Texas Longhorn Herd. Oil and gas discoveries in the 1920s added another layer to the local economy, and today rental properties serve ranch hands, oil field workers, and families drawn to Albany's small-town character. When a tenant moves on without settling the lease, ACB steps in.
ACB is licensed in Texas and understands the ranching-and-oil mix that defines Shackelford County's economy. The Old Jail Art Center in Albany houses a surprising collection that includes works by Picasso and Modigliani, proof that even a small West Texas town can punch above its weight. ACB brings that same outsized capability to debt collection. The Fort Griffin Fandangle, staged outdoors since 1938, is the longest-running outdoor musical in Texas, telling the story of settlers who refused to give up on this land. ACB refuses to give up on recovering the rent your tenants owe. We have spent more than 25 years collecting debts in rural Texas communities.
Our contingency pricing means you pay zero unless we collect. Skip tracing follows former tenants from Albany to Abilene, Fort Worth, or out of state. Credit bureau reporting twice a month gives delinquent renters a reason to respond. Picture a property owner near the Shackelford County Courthouse whose ranch-hand tenant left mid-lease for a job in the Permian Basin. ACB locates the former renter and negotiates a payment plan. The longhorns at Fort Griffin have grazed these prairies for generations because someone kept watch over the herd, and ACB keeps watch over your unpaid rent. Call us today to get started.

"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!"
