Repossession company primarily operates by obtaining products from banks, government, loan offices, and other people’s companies or belongings. Individuals and companies who are unable to pay their debts, loans, mortgages, and other financial obligations may lose their assets/personal belongings to banks or federal agencies which will, in turn, resell these to other people or companies. When planning to Startup a repossession business, you have to keep in mind to review every detail of your planned approach and strategies to avoid financial risks you may encounter in this kind of industry.
Starting your own repossession company requires a business license that will allow you to operate legally (some states do not require a license to operate). It is also important to consult an attorney and tax adviser to help you decide what kind of corporation and business setup is the most viable for your company. After doing this, the next step is to consider your business competitors which will help you to develop a marketing plan to outwit your business rival such as offering products and services which are not available in other companies.

- I see a lot of you guys asking how and were to start a business up in this industry. I have been in the business for years and there are still things that I learn on a daily basis. I am a successful owner or a company that now has 4 offices in 4 major cities and we are looking to expand to more. However, be aware that this is not a business that you can start up and walk into and make money like a Burger King franchise or a circle k. It takes first knowing the industry and how it works. Knowing that you are responsible for any and all damages and the action of anyone that you have that works for you or with you. Professionalism is key in this business and if you have ever spent time running a truck for someone else company then you know that there are many sleepless nights and some days that you make no money at all. Do not for one minute believe the " Operation Repo" hype and think it's all fun and games. It's the farthest thing from it. If you are interested in getting started and getting it done right and learning how to build and run a successful Recovery company then feel free to contact me. I will open my services as a consultant and I will teach you the in's and out's of the industry. Corjayo@netscape.net, Serious inquiries only. If you have the capacity to learn, I have the knowledge to teach.

- I would like to start my own repo business but first I would like to work for someone for a while. Anyone know of a company in the syracuse new york area that would be willing to train me?
- Please be advised to all that are interested into getting into the repo business. If you have never worked in the business then i suggest you first do that with a local company in your area. Do that for at least a year and then come back and see if you still want to do this because by then you should have found out all of your answers to all of the questions that you have been asking. I really hope that none of you try and just jump into this business cuz it can get you hurt really bad both physically and financially and you could lose everything you own if you make just the smallest of mistakes. Please take the time to at least work for someone first and get lots of knowledge on how to do repos before you jump out there. This is a very lucrative but not so lucrative business if you don't run it properly. Please Please make sure you know what you are doing before putting your life and others in danger if you don't. Thank You....
- @Greg and any others who are looking to put on new clients for a start up or existing repossession company. I have a marketing service that I used that put my company in front of a couple thousand clients. Of course I did not end up doing work for them all but what I did get I was VERY happy with and I currently use them to keep getting new clients. They have proven beneficial to my company and made me far more than the fee that I paid them. If you want their info email me at corjayo@netscape.net
- Frankie, you took the words right out of my mouth. I have been trying to stress that fact. Ol' Operation Repo has people thinking that they can just get a DBA and cut a key and they get rich. A bit of misguided adrenaline will get you nothing but shot, hurt, sued or in jail. Maybe I should start doing consulting for the repossession industry.
- WHAT LICENSING REQUIREMENTS ARE THERE IN THE STATES OF ARIZONA, TEXAS OR NEVADA?
- For all those looking to avoid marketing to potential clients (because we all know how time consuming and frustrating it can be) check out this website that does it for you. www.innerpoolads.com They are specifically targeting those companies/ clients that are specific to the repossession and skip tracing industry. I signed up and already it has paid for itself in one repo and I have already landed quite a few new clients thanks to them.. Figured I would help you guys out and give you a little insight to an easy way to get started and letting someone else do the hard work for you.
