Anyone used RentTrack?

Seems like a nice serivce to set automatic payments for rent. It also appears to have an effect on Vantage Score but wondering if it would benefit FICO 8? If anyone has any experience with this service, I would love to hear about it.

FICO 8 does not consider rent.  FICO 9 does.

If you have no credit, it'd be a no-brainer to latch onto something like this. Even if it doesn't generate the full complement of scores, it's still a positive account with a payment history that lenders can view when they pull your report. One could be positioned for a half decent unsecured major card as his first account.

 

Just about everyone else should probably skip this. It's going to unnecessarily drag down AoYA and AAoA. An exception might be rebuilders who feel that the additional positive account might help them with the process.

My rent is on auto pay and it reports to EX. It shows as an installment loan, not as rent. It’s not renttrack tho. 7 years of on time payments that count towards Credit age is always a win.
