Will this help my Credit Profile?
Absolutely, reporting your rent payments can only improve
your credit profile. Rent payments will be added to your credit
report which increases your credit depth. This in turn helps to
increase and repair your credit and scores.
Rent Reporting will also help offset any bad credit you may
have.
How
much will my score improve?
Every point is valuable and contributes to your credit
report and score. Reporting your rent payments to your
credit report can go a long way to repairing bad credit and
boosting your score.
Why doesn't
my landlord just report my history?
Most landlords simply don't have the knowledge,
ability or desire to report your monthly payments. They only
need or benefit from reporting your failed payments.
How long does it take before I see my rent payments on my credit
report?
Within 60 days. Depending on the reporting cycle it may
show up as soon as 14 days after verification has been
completed. Once your initial verification has been performed and
is in the system, your future ratings will occur automatically
once a month.
Doesn't my rent already show on my credit report?
No, it is not mandatory for your landlord to report your
history to the credit bureaus. Unfortunately, the only time you
do get reported to the credit bureau is when you don’t pay on
time or when the landlord files a collection against you. The
other reason you are not getting the credit you deserve for on
time payments is that your landlord most likely does not know
how to report to the credit bureaus or doesn’t want to pay for
the extra expense. Renters Credit has solved the problem with
our easy to use reporting system.
I pay
my rent in cash, can I report that?
As long as you have a lease in
place, and you pay your rent on time. It doesn't matter what
method you use to make your monthly rent payments. Get started
today and get the loans you want tomorrow!

How does Rent
Reporting help me build credit?
We report your monthly rent payment history to a
national credit reporting agency. Rent Reporting helps everyone, whether you have good
credit, bad credit or no credit at all.
Will my
landlord allow me to do this?
Absolutely Yes! Your landlord likes
Rent Reporting for a few reasons. First, they know that you are
concerned with paying your rent on time and have added incentive
to do so in the future. Second, they know that by helping you
report your rent, they're helping you to a better future. Third,
they know that by reporting your on time monthly rent payments,
it will make it easier to verify you in the future. Everyone is
a winner!
What happens
if I don’t pay my rent on time?
If your rent is more than 30 days late we must report
that to the credit bureaus. For example, if your rent is due on
January 1st and you don’t make your payment until January 22nd,
there will be no late reported. However, if you didn’t make that
payment till February 10th it would be reported as a 30 day late
to the credit bureaus.
Reporting late rent payments may still help you, especially if
you have bad credit or no credit at all.
