With fewer than 1,200 residents spread across the Edwards Plateau, Sterling County is one of the least populated corners of Texas, but even here landlords deal with tenants who leave Sterling City without paying what they owe. Advanced Collection Bureau recovers unpaid apartment lease and rental debt for property owners across this West Texas ranching community.
Sterling County sits on rolling plateau land between San Angelo and Big Spring, with Sterling City as its sole incorporated town and county seat. U.S. Highway 87 and State Highway 158 intersect in Sterling City, connecting ranchers, oil workers, and their families to the regional economy. Cattle, sheep, and goats have anchored the local economy since the first settlers arrived, and oil and gas production has provided supplemental income since the early twentieth century. Rental housing serves ranch hands, pump jacks operators, and pipeline workers. When a tenant finishes a seasonal job or transfers to another field and leaves without paying rent, ACB goes after the balance.
ACB is licensed in Texas and understands ranching counties where the population is small but the distances are vast. Over 96 percent of Sterling County's land is in farms and ranches, with beef cattle forming the backbone of agricultural revenue. Oil production has at times generated tens of millions of dollars in annual output, drawing temporary workers who cycle through the limited rental supply. Sterling City was once known for its 150 windmills pumping water from the plateau, a practical symbol of the resourcefulness that defines this community. ACB brings that same resourcefulness to debt recovery, using skip tracing technology to locate former tenants across the state. We have over 25 years of experience collecting debts in rural West Texas.
You pay nothing unless we collect. Our contingency model eliminates financial risk for Sterling County property owners. Skip tracing follows former tenants to San Angelo, Midland, Odessa, or wherever they land. Credit bureau reporting twice a month creates pressure for delinquent renters to resolve their accounts. Consider a Sterling City landlord with a rental house near Highway 87 whose oil field tenant left town when a well was capped, leaving three months unpaid. ACB locates the former renter working in the Permian Basin and negotiates repayment. The ranching families who built Sterling County survived droughts, low prices, and isolation because they never gave up, and ACB never gives up on your unpaid rent. Contact us today.

"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!"
