An unknown new Recovery Agent would almost find it impossible to make $40,0000 a year, Bondsman are writing tight paper to stay in the red and alot due their own recoveries to keep the percentage they got to write the bond in their bank account. On the flip side of the coin a known recovery agent with good contacts with the Insurance companies can make up to 5 times a forty thousand a year salary. Since i have retired from Bail Enforcement will will tell what i made the last year i did it. $118,000 gross no PI work or anything other then Bail Recovery. I have been in the Bail bonds or recovery agent business since 1975. I made more than this amount the couple of years i was cleaning up From Capital Bonding and a few other write everything worry later Bondsman. I only worked for Insurance companies the last 4 years i was in this business. I can assure anyone that i worked my ass off and lived out of hotel rooms and a suite case and was never home. I came back and wanted to add you have a overhead in this business even if you work from home one main one is Gas,vehicles, hotel rooms, RV if you go that way. no business is ever all profit, no even moonshine but there is no tax's on the shine if you don't get caught by the Alcohol boy's
