They have a report bills to credit angle.What will happen is that instead of you paying your bills directly, you pay tomo and they pay your bills and depending on how much you decide to pay them monthly they will report 1000 - 10000 in a type of credit line to credit reporting bureaus.There are a lot of these report bills to credit services available these days and most cost less than Tomo...Tomo Boost is the only one I mention because they can back up to 24 months... so if you've paying your cell, or Netflix or Electric Bill... literally any bill... they can back date up to 24 months.So... if you do both Tomo and Rent Reporters... inside of 30 Days you would have 2 accounts over 2 years old and your credit would be in a much better position for applying for a mortgageOne other thing that is worth mentioning is that INCOME is MUCH more important than credit when applying for a mortgage.
