Why Boom Needs Your Landlord's Information
Before Boom can report your rent payments to the credit bureaus, Boom must verify your current landlord and/or property manager. Entering the correct landlord information ensures this verification can be completed without delays.
If You Pay Rent to an Individual Landlord
If you make your rent payments directly to an individual person — such as an independent landlord who owns the property — enter the following:
Their first and last name
Their email address
If You Pay Rent to a Company
If you make your rent payments to a property management company or any other business — rather than to an individual person — enter the following:
The company name
The company phone number
The company email address
Important: Do not enter the name of an individual who works for the company, such as someone at the front desk or in the leasing office. Enter the company's information only.
Not Sure Which Applies to You?
A simple way to tell the difference:
If your rent check, bank transfer, or payment portal is addressed to a person's name — enter that individual's name and email address.
If your rent check, bank transfer, or payment portal is addressed to a business name — enter the company's name, phone number, and email address.
