Las Vegas, Nevada — Est. 2007

Built for Repossession.
Not Towing.

Most repossession companies in Nevada started as tow trucks. They figured the two businesses were close enough. They were wrong, and lenders paid for it for years.

Marcus Bowen saw it from the inside. Before founding Ace Recovery in 2007, he spent nearly a decade working in lender relations for auto finance companies across the Southwest. Assignment after assignment, he watched the same problems repeat. Tow companies took the easy recoveries and let the difficult ones sit. Lenders got closeout bills on units that were never touched. Skip traces were never run. Collateral disappeared into the Las Vegas metro — moved between storage lots, handed off to relatives, buried inside sub-lease arrangements that standard tow operators had no idea how to untangle.

The problem wasn't a shortage of tow trucks. It was a shortage of people who actually understood how to work a repossession assignment from start to finish.

Ace Recovery opened in Las Vegas in 2007 with a simple model. Contingency pricing only — if the collateral wasn't recovered, the client owed nothing. No closeout bills. No mileage charges. No fuel surcharges. The company would run skip traces on every difficult assignment and keep working it until the collateral was found or every lead was exhausted.

Las Vegas turned out to be one of the most demanding repossession markets in the country. Sub-lease fraud rings. Debtors who moved between storage facilities and private lots. Boats hidden in Lake Mead marinas. Semi trucks driven to job sites in rural Nevada counties. Indian Reservation assignments that standard tow companies wouldn't touch. Ace Recovery built the expertise, the equipment, and the contacts to handle all of it.

The Team

Ace Recovery is a tight operation. Everyone on the team works assignments directly — there are no layers of dispatch between the client and the people on the ground. When you call, you reach someone who knows your case. When something changes on an assignment, your dispatcher tells you directly.

The team includes experienced skip tracers, licensed recovery agents, and operators with backgrounds in commercial vehicle recovery, boat repossession, and heavy equipment. We have the equipment to handle assignments most companies in Nevada turn away, and we have worked long enough in this market to know how debtors in Las Vegas operate.

How We Work

• Contingency Pricing Only No recovery means no bill. We do not charge closeout fees, mileage charges, or fuel surcharges on unsuccessful assignments.
• Skip Tracing on Every Difficult Assignment We do not leave collateral sitting because the debtor moved. Skip tracing is part of the process, not an add-on.
• All Collateral Types Cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, boats, semi trucks, construction equipment, and trailers. If it has a lien and someone stopped paying, we can go get it.
• Direct Communication Every client gets a dedicated dispatcher. You reach your contact directly — not a call center, not a general inbox.
• Statewide Nevada Coverage Las Vegas, Henderson, North Las Vegas, Reno, Carson City, Elko, Ely, Winnemucca, and rural Nevada. We work the full state.
• Compliant Recovery Every assignment is worked in accordance with Nevada law and lender instructions. We do not breach the peace or use methods that put clients at risk.

Nevada's Repossession Market

Las Vegas is not a typical market. It has one of the highest rates of vehicle sub-lease fraud in the country. It has a large transient population that makes skip tracing more involved than in most cities. It has unique collateral types — off-road vehicles, boats, watercraft — that standard tow companies are not equipped to handle. And it has outlying rural territory that stretches from Boulder City to Mesquite to the ranching communities of Northern Nevada.

Ace Recovery was built for this specific market. Seventeen years of working Nevada repossession assignments has produced the contacts, the procedures, and the institutional knowledge that newer or generalist operations simply do not have. When lenders and finance companies in Nevada have an assignment that isn't moving, they call Ace Recovery.
