FrontLobby aims to facilitate proactive and positive conversations between Housing Providers and Renters. When applicable, we encourage all parties to work towards a mutually agreeable payment plan.
If a payment plan is in place and a Tenant is paying according to the plan, no debts may be reported to the Credit Bureaus. Payments according to the payment plan should be recorded as being paid on time and the Tenant may use them to build their credit. However, if a Tenant stops paying according to the payment plan, the total outstanding debt may be recorded.
If a Tenant believes a debt is being reported when there is a payment plan in place, please follow our dispute process outlined here.
