I found myself unemployed, and as a result, I fell behind on my mortgage payments. I tried different loan modifications to keep my home, but that only made my situation worse, as my credit score plummeted due to all the hard credit inquiries. When it was all said and done, my credit score went down to 485!

I decided to do some additional research, and in the process, read about RentReporters while looking online. Before that, I didn’t know that my rent payments could be reported to increase my credit score. Even my real estate agent didn’t know about reporting rent payments.

I signed up in August 2016, and my score went up in about a month. Today, my score is now in the high 600s!

Part of the problem was that I had little understanding of credit. All I really knew was that credit was important, but I didn’t know the different ratings and how they worked, what was a revolving account, importance of on time payments, and why closed accounted mattered. I didn’t know what was impacting my score and how.

I learned about RentReporters and how reporting my on time rent payments could build my score. So, I signed up, and in about 15 days, my score went up 44 points to 610!

A friend of mine works at RentReporters, and he told me about the company and how they work. Until then, I was not aware of RentReporters and that they could report my rent payments. Yet, I had always wondered why rent wasn’t being reported on credit reports. It seemed so logical to me. After all, you pay rent on time, and that’s the same as paying a bill on time. So, I decided to sign up.

It took about a week for them to get a hold of the property manager at the leasing company. Once RentReporters received my landlord verification, my credit score changed in about a week or two. In fact, my credit score has improved by 120 points!!!!
