Keep an eye on your credit.
Credit monitoring watches your credit report and alerts you when something changes, like a new account or a hard inquiry.
Requests are free and have no impact on your credit score. Providers set their own prices.
Why it matters when you rent
Landlords check your credit when you apply, so a mistake or an account you don't recognize can cost you an apartment. Monitoring tracks your report with one or more bureaus and alerts you to changes, so you can dispute an error or act on fraud early.
Many services also show your score. You can also check your reports from all 3 bureaus for free every week at AnnualCreditReport.com, the only site federal law authorizes for free reports, though those reports don't include a score.
What to compare between services
- 1 bureau or all 3
- Free or paid, and what the paid plan adds
