Nova Credit will equip property managers with global credit insights, streamlining the approval process and allowing them to lease to more international residents with confidence.

LEHI, Utah — April 15, 2025 - Entrata, the leading AI-powered operating system for the multifamily industry, today announced a partnership with Nova Credit, a global credit infrastructure and analytics company, to enhance its ResidentVerify system by providing property managers with seamless access to international credit data for rental applicants.

For many newcomers to the U.S., securing housing is one of the biggest hurdles due to a lack of domestic credit history. Yet, many of these individuals arrive with well-established credit profiles from their home countries. Without access to that data, however, property managers often struggle to assess creditworthiness, leading to unnecessary barriers for otherwise qualified renters.

Through this partnership, Entrata will integrate Nova Credit’s Credit Passport® into its resident screening platform, enabling property managers to evaluate international applicants using their verified credit history from abroad—translated into a format that aligns with U.S. underwriting standards. This integration streamlines the approval process, expands the pool of eligible renters, and supports a more inclusive approach to housing.

"Entrata is committed to making the rental process more accessible and efficient for both property managers and residents," said Catherine Wong, COO and CPO of Entrata. "By integrating Nova Credit’s Credit Passport®, we’re equipping our customers with yet another powerful tool to make informed leasing decisions while ensuring that qualified international applicants have fewer barriers due to accessible information."

Entrata’s ResidentVerify system already offers automated workflows, worry-free compliance, and robust fraud protection. The addition of Credit Passport® enhances these capabilities by providing access to credit data from 16 countries and over two billion individuals, opening doors to a wider range of qualified renters.

“Too often, gaps in data access prevent qualified applicants from securing housing in their new country,” said Akaash Gupta, Partnerships Lead at Nova Credit. “We are proud to partner with Entrata on this new offering, which will expand the qualified applicant pool for their clients while furthering financial inclusion and housing access for newcomers to the U.S.”
