What is a credit history and why do I need one to submit an application?

Rentler makes moving in easier with Rentler Applications. Rentler Applications include a credit and background screening, so in order to apply to a listing you will need to verify your identity and have a credit history that can be pulled. That means you have opened a credit account, had a loan in your name, reported payments to a credit bureau, or have alternative credit data in your name.

Being able to see an instant screening helps landlords make a decision and get you moved in faster. If your landlord is still asking for a screening, catch us on live chat from https://www.rentler.com/ or call us at 1-888-222-1009.
