You would have to become a contributing member of the credit bureau in question to contribute information on an individual. This is not always possible (legally), nor cost-worthy. However, if you wanted to sue your former tenant in small claims or civil court; if you prevail and are granted a judgment, THAT legal item would get picked up and eventually show on the person's credit report.

How can a landlord report good credit for a tenant?
You are unable to report "good credit" to the credit bureau but I found a website that allows landlords to prepare reports on tenants and view reports that other landlords have completed. The reports are in a yes/no format so they are easy to complete, professional and unbiased. It is AboutTenants.com. It was launched in 2008 so it is new, but has significant potential for landlords. It is a free sight (though does require registration for full access). They also have free lease agreements, addendums, and other rental forms that contain terms that help protect the landlord. By creating a report on your tenant, you may be able to help him/her in the future obtain the rental that they are applying for!
