Missing out on 3 months of rent-is it worth it to pursue collections?

[Calvin Matthews]

Hello.

The previous property management company that we used did a crappy job managing our house and because of that, my wife and I didn't receive 3 months of rent payments (from September through November 2023). These tenants have already moved out, thankfully. I can go into more specifics if interested/needed but basically we're out $6,375 of rent payments.

My questions are:

-Should I pursue collections with the tenant?

-Is there any kind of restitution that I should look into with the previous property management company?

-Our house is in New Braunfels. Does anyone have a recommendation as to what company to use for collections?

Thank you in advance.
