WHAT WE DO

What is Eviction Management?

Eviction management is handling the entire eviction process from start to finish on behalf of property owners and landlords — think of it as your assistant property manager for evictions, available 24/7, 365 days a year.

Here’s what that means with us.

Instead of you having to:

  • Learn Georgia eviction law and court procedures
  • Generate demand letters that comply with state requirements
  • Navigate county-specific filing systems and timelines
  • Handle ongoing tenant communication and negotiation
  • Coordinate with process servers, attorneys, and marshals
  • Track court dates and legal deadlines
  • Manage the stress of dealing with difficult tenants directly

ETFM handles all of that for you:

  • We generate the formal demand letter and work your case every single day
  • Our team makes live calls to your tenant (not just automated messages)
  • We handle all tenant communication so you don’t deal with their calls and texts
  • We file with the county, coordinate process service, and manage court appearances
  • We schedule set-outs and work with marshals when needed
  • You track everything through your client portal — but don’t have to operate the case yourself

Our goal: Solve your case as quickly as possible — whether that’s getting paid, getting your property back, or working out a solution that works for everyone. Over 75% of our cases resolve in 1–2 weeks without ever needing to file in court. The dirty job is ours; you get relief and results.

Built for every landlord

We work as part of your team.

You don’t have to be part of an industry association to get the same platform, active-engagement approach, team, and resolution.

Individual landlords

One unit or five. ETFM and our legal team operate the case from demand letter to set-out so you don't have to learn Georgia eviction law to protect your investment.

Property managers

An extension of your team. Transparent case timeline, no friction with your daily operations, and a seamless extension of your team without the overhead. You need us, we are there.

Real-estate investors

Outcome-focused case management at portfolio scale. Operate concurrent cases with minimal touch — clean status reporting and unit turnover.

Apartment communities

Built for volume. Consistent results across many cases at once, with on-site team integration and per-property reporting.

We know what a day without rental income costs. Our goal is to shorten your eviction timeline.

Case Pipeline

How your case moves.

Your case starts with Step 1, the demand letter.
Most of our cases end with the demand letter — and you can watch every step in EvictDeck.

Step 1Most stop here

Demand Letter

Formal notice to pay or vacate, sent by mail, email, call, and text. $50–$100. Most cases resolve here.

Step 2

Filing

We file the dispossessory affidavit with the right county. $210–$225 includes filing + process service.

Step 3

Process Service

Included in the filing cost. Our process servers serve the summons to the door with a third-party affidavit.

Step 4

Answer Period

The tenant has 7 days to answer. We negotiate hard for a consent agreement throughout this phase.

Step 5

Court Hearing

Only if the tenant answered. In most cases you don’t need to appear — cost varies by county.

Step 6

Judgment

Goal is always a judgment that resolves your case in a single court visit.

Step 7

Writ of Possession

Filed only if the tenant doesn’t comply. Cost varies by county; the judge typically signs within 2 weeks.

Step 8

Set Out

ETFM coordinates marshals and crew. We continue to communicate with the tenant throughout — most leave before it gets here.

The buffer

We talk to your tenant. You don't have to.

Once ETFM is engaged, the tenant communicates with our team — not you. Calls, texts, late messages, payment offers, threats — they come to us. If they contact you, politely tell them to contact us. They know how to reach us. The case keeps moving without you managing it.

Their calls go to us

Tenants call ETFM's line. We pick up, we handle it, we document it. You're not the front desk for your own eviction.

Texts and emails route through your case

Every message is captured in your portal — payment offers, complaints, attempts to negotiate. You see them when you choose to, not when your phone buzzes.

Escalations go to the legal team

If a tenant crosses into threatening or unsafe territory, ETFM documents the incident and routes it to our legal team for follow-up. You don't have to manage that on your own.

Many clients tell us this communication relief was worth the cost alone — they were exhausted dealing with the tenant directly and just wanted it off their plate.

Active engagement

Your case never sits.

ETFM works your case every day — not just on filing days and court days. The platform pushes your tenant toward a resolution across every channel that gets a response.
