Available industry data is clear, if a repossession agent has not recovered a vehicle within 30 days of working it properly, the recovery rate after that point is typically in the 6%-9% range.

With that said, skip trace services can be an alternative to leaving the assignment with an agent for the final 20 days before charge off.
