- To report debts from a former Tenant, former Tenant Debt Reporting must be turned on
- The data is reported to the Tenant’s credit report with Equifax, TransUnion, Experian and Landlord Credit Bureau (LCB)
- The longer a debt remains on a credit report, the greater its impact
- The debt is also reflected on the tenant’s Landlord Credit Bureau Tenant Record (in jurisdictions where LCB operates), accessible to future Landlords during screening
- Notifications including rent reminders and late payment notices can be sent, encouraging resolution before reporting
- LCB sends free credit alerts to notify tenants after a debt is reported
