Anyone tried using the Landlord Credit Bureau?
I'm considering signing up for a membership with the Landlord Credit Bureau to set up a new system for tenant screening and credit reporting their rent payments. Anyone else a member? They say on their site that they have a database of tenants. I'm curious to know how good this database actually is.
I like the premise of communicating to my tenants that their rent payments will be reported to the credit bureaus each month. It seems like a small way of restoring some of the power balance of my province's shameful rental laws.

I've used Landlord Credit Bureau and the result was the renter who owed me money paid after receiving communication from them. I looked into the legality and David Overland (above) is spreading disinformation. If I was a betting man, I'd bet that he is a tenant who got caught by a landlord using the platform and didn't like getting caught.
