Only 10% of renters see their on-time rental payment history reflected in their credit scores. That limits their credit score and access to quality financial products. With this Freddie Mac partnership, that is going to change. Congrats @getesusu!
We’re excited to announce Esusu is teaming up with Freddie Mac on a new multi-family initiative to help renters nationwide build credit through on-time rent payments. 🤝 Read all about this landmark relationship here: https://t.co/CVKNEDVE83.

New post from @jeffweiner and me: One of the single most important things successful startups get right is their ability to focus. It's much easier said than done. These three themes can help. https://t.co/Mmbij5Mf8W
