I think you can have something already written up that you can give her when she informs you they're leaving. I would work with her and let her know that you know money is tight for her, and that you are willing to take payments of $100 a month, or maybe $150 a month. That's probably what I'd do. I feel like if I spring a huge amount on someone who barely gets by paycheck to paycheck, that it is going to look overwhelming, and they're likely to find ways not to pay ANY of it. But if you present it in a way that shows sympathy for their situation, and willingness to work with them, they're going to accept it easier and be more likely to pay you off. Now, if it comes time for that payment and it's late, I would be on her like stink on poop. Not in a mean way, but just by calling, texting, emailing, etc. constantly, and always with a nice tone. I don't get nasty until they do. I may FEEL nasty toward them, but I don't show it, or I risk getting my money.
