Doesn't my rent already show on my credit report?

No, your rent payments are not already being reported to credit agencies. This misconception is further strengthened because when you don’t pay your rent on time, or have a landlord action against you, this is reported to the credit agencies in the form of collections, or unlawful detainer filing in the public records. Rent Reporters has the solution for tenants. As a service bureau we enable any landlord to be able to have tenant accounts reporting to the credit agencies.
