How Do Credit Bureau Collections Work?

FrontLobby enables Landlords to report rent not paid by former Tenants to the Credit Bureaus. As a result, until the debtor pays in full, the rent debt will show on their Credit Report and their credit score may be impacted. This provides incentive for the former Tenant to communicate and ensure the debt is resolved.

With Debt Reporting, Housing Providers can inform former Tenants of the impact a debt has on their credit. For those who wish to clear the rent debt but require additional time, FrontLobby enables Landlords to register payment plans.

Collecting Unpaid Rent After A Tenant Moves Out

Collecting unpaid rent after a Tenant moves out can be both time consuming and stressful. Your business could suffer due to this loss of income and countless hours could be spent trying to recover rent not paid.

Many Housing Providers do not know how to collect rent after a Tenant moves out without paying or without notice. Their options typically include small claims court, collecting through a bank levy, wage garnishment, or hiring a debt collections agency.

An alternative method is to report the rent debt to Credit Bureaus for the purpose of collecting the outstanding balance, once reported the rent debt will show on the Tenant’s Credit Report.

Report A Tenant to A Collection Agency

Landlords can report a former Tenant to a debt collection agency to help recover unpaid rent. However, most collection agencies work on commissions and the Landlord will owe a percentage of the debt, typically 30-50%, to the collection agency.

When Housing Providers choose to report rent not paid to the Credit Bureaus through FrontLobby they can keep 100% of the debt recovered. FrontLobby empowers Housing Providers to report the rent debt, it does not negotiate payments, arrange payments or handle payments.

Professionally reporting unpaid rent to credit companies to retrieve unpaid rent.

One of the best best best solution and support for landlords. Your solution helped me to recover the debt from a very difficult tenant and also helped me to get them our of my house and list finally.

If there was 1 thing that helped in our negotiations it was FrontLobby! They were afraid of the money owed since it's being reported against their credit.

By the way I am using your platform to pull tenant credit and background check reports and they are fantastic!

Excellent method for helping my tenant rebuild her credit score and reassuring way for me to know we're all caught up. Thank you for this helpful product.

Used Frontlobby for utilities outstanding and was paid up.

Just completed my first 2 Credit Checks on prospective tenants… this was the simplest interaction with a credit reporting agency I’ve ever experienced. Thank you FrontLobby.

Yes, FrontLobby is great for that. It's inexpensive, simple, and quick. Once set up it's automatically reported.

Fast and easy to set up. You will get results!

I just wanted to share that FrontLobby has assisted in guiding several of my non-paying tenants to consider the consequences of their non-payment, and a few of them have paid off their debts, while others prioritize rent payments as they want to avoid the consequences of credit reporting.

Front Lobby helped two of my tenants purchase a home because of the increased credit scores. Great Company.

My tenants pay their rent on time and it is a win-win. They build credit, and I get paid.

This is exciting-been using FrontLobby for the second year now! Highly recommended, tenants have been great and really appreciated this option when they didn't have great credit. Glad to be able to help them have peace of mind.

Amazing Service. Great Job. Very Satisfied and would highly recommend to all the landlords out there. Worth every penny. Please keep adding more features and services, to make it even a better product!!!!!

Very useful to apply constraint for tenant and they made payment on time since I began to use Frontlobby to record their payment situation.

Front Lobby has been a good service.

Extremely responsive (received a call within an hour), provides information quickly and resolve my issue professionally and without any hassle.

It's like having a wingman to support you when in need. Tenants receive rent reminders, there's resources, checklists etc. making things easy.

This is a powerful tool! Great for both parties.

Your agency is doing a great job creating and maintaining and growing such a system, it is really innovative and needed.

It's a good concept. Good tenants get a boosted credit score and the bad ones get a bad score. Totally fair. Best part of all is it gives other landlords a head's up.

Encourages tenants to pay on time since they're getting a reminder from a legitimate source besides myself.

I used Front Lobby to register my tenant lease. Those who paid on time have really appreciate the positive impact of their credit. One tenant who owed me over $30k recently paid their debt as they were well aware that their credit was being negatively affected.

FrontLobby helps you track payments, credit as well as debts. It is set up automatically and is efficient.

We love the easy of use and the rent reporting is a great tool!

Friendly system to use and helpful for screening potential tenants.

Good tool for tenancy screening and rental management.

I’m glad I signed up for FrontLobby as it made conducting background checks simple and automatic monthly rent reminders minimize rent payment issues.

I've purchased a home and no longer rent.

I have built up a decent credit file by now that has enabled me to access all the credit I need. Thank you for your co-operation!

Intuitive platform for reporting lease payments (late as well as on time) plus easy to use tenant screening. This one package replaces two other subscriptions.

One stop shop for screening and maintaining tenant financial responsibility.

I was delighted that you guys have brought such a positive change to this industry to allow landlords and tenants to work together to build their great credit and future, while landlords feel much more secure.

Just begun looking into FRONTLOBBY. Have done my research on many other competitors. This company looks to be the best that I have found.

I'm asking my landlord to sign up for this currently!! I've been paying on time and in full for 3 years, I'd love it to go towards my credit score.

Your services are admirable. FrontLobby provides a great service to any that might be lacking a credit record, and I would not hesitate to refer anyone to FrontLobby.

I have subscribed to your service. I have seen an increase in my credit report the first months.

I use it and love it. Since I added it to my tenants lease, they haven't been late once. Prior to this, they were late every month by roughly a week. God send!

Thanks, it's already starting to work. The tenant reached out after disappearing for months.

It totally works. A previous tenant paid the owing rent even though they have moved our as it is reported on their credit bureau.

This is the best way to reward great tenants who pay their rent on time. This system is easy to use and is very effective at deterring non paying tenants.

This will allow our great customers to build their credit score faster by paying rent in a timely manner during their tenancy. #propertymanagement #mb #realestate #bdnmb #multifamily

It has worked wonderfully for us, and our current tenants are excited to have their credit scores improving …. Former tenants paid their overdue amounts expeditiously ….

East Vista Management has recently implemented the services of FrontLobby to help tenants build their Tenant Record and the feedback has been incredible! #tenantrelations #creditrating

I am using this service and my tenants are all fans of having their rent reported to help build their credit. I haven't had any delinquent payments, but it certainly is an incentive for tenants to pay their rent.
