The Big 3 aren’t the only ones selling your information.

There are many “specialty “bureaus that report only specific areas of information ranging from landlord tenant experience, medical records employment and criminal background to name just a few.These companies use these reports to inform decisions about providing you with credit, employment, residential rental housing, insurance, and in other decision making situations.
