I am huge fan of taking care of your credit and making sure you understand the rules of the game, now that everybody is using credit to judge you. I was reading a blog and saw this:

Rent Payments May Soon Affect Your Credit Score


Consumers who struggle to build a solid credit profile may soon get a boost by simply paying their monthly rent on time.

One of the country's three major credit reporting agencies is now incorporating positive rental payment data into its scoring methodology. Experian will track the information through its RentBureau division, a specialty credit bureau that gathers payment data from a network of property managers covering more than 8 million renters nationwide.

Wonder will this be retroactive? I don't have a lot of credit history which is the only downside to my credit.

But I have 6 years of flawless rent payments.
