If I Rent To Own, How Will It Show On My Credit?

Is there any way? Thanks!

    The only way to have it listed on your credit report is if the person you are renting to own from is a subscriber to any of the Credit reporting agencies. Other than that, I don't see a way to get it added.

    It won't show up on your credit. If you need to use your on-time payments to your advantage to acquire other credit, you can get a letter from your landlord and/or show cancelled checks for the rent you paid. When you get ready to buy, it will be treated as a refinance.

    It is unlikely that this trade line can appear on your credit but you can prove good, on time payments through canceled checks or better yet--using a loan servicing company.

    This documentation will be needed when looking to get a conventional loan.
