He would need to sue you in small claims court in order for this to be recorded on your credit report. Another way is to use a collection agency to get money owed, he isn't likely to though, as he gets such a small amount back.





Rent is a bill, not credit, and can not be simply reported as paid on time or not.
Reply:If he feels you owe him money, he can take you to small claims court. If he proves the claim to the judge, he will be able to get a judgement against you, which will continue to affect your credit report as long as it is in place.
