I doubt you will ever collect a judgement from this dead beat-renter, I am a Private Detective in Lee's Summit, MO and looked up her court records and found that she many landlord suits against her with many, many thousands of dollars in judgements against her, so stand in line and wait to collect like all the rest are now doing. in the mean time pay some extra bucks and hire a Private Detective to check out your renters.

You sound like a nice person. I am sorry you got caught in such a bad situation Begin eviction proceedings and then take her to court and get a judgment against her. In the future, as you know, please be more careful who you rent to. You say that she was "interviewing" with Hallmark. Well, I personally wouldn't rent to anyone unless they had a bona-fide job that I could verify! I'd also get a a security deposit and first and last month's rent. Additionally, before someone moved in, I'd walk around the house with a video camera so that when they moved out and there was damage, I'd have videotaped proof they caused the damage. At my local community college, there is a "landlord" class. You might want to check and see if your area offers such a class. Also, landlord.com might be a resource for you to learn more about your rights and what steps you should take. Good Luck!
