Report Your Rent - Build Your Credit
Explore how Rentaba can help you build credit and navigate payments
Start Building Credit
Rent reporting means your monthly payments are sent to one or more credit bureaus and added to your credit file as a tradeline.
Rentaba is a specialized rent reporting tool that handles these steps for tenants and landlords, optimizing data accuracy and bureau compatibility.
An informal or verbal agreement usually means no standard lease, which affects how rent is verified.
Rentaba is designed to handle both formal and informal setups by allowing flexible documentation while still meeting bureau standards.
By centralizing these documents and confirmations, Rentaba acts as the best rent reporting tool to transform even informal rent payments into reportable credit data.
It’s not always obvious what documents you need when there’s no formal lease, and different landlords, credit bureaus, or rent-reporting services may ask for different kinds of proof that you’ve been paying rent consistently.
It’s not always obvious what documents you need when there’s no formal lease, and different landlords, credit bureaus, or rent-reporting services may ask for different kinds of proof that you’ve been paying rent consistently.
Some landlords may refuse to confirm your tenancy, provide written proof of payments, or cooperate with verification requests. This can make it harder to document your rent history, support credit reporting, or resolve disputes over what you’ve paid.
Keeping consistent proof of payments can be difficult when rent is paid in cash, through informal methods, or without receipts, making it harder to document your rental history or verify rent amounts if needed for reporting or disputes.
