New Hampshire Housing Reports Security Incident Involving RentCafe

New Hampshire Housing, a public-purpose housing finance authority, has reported a security incident involving Yardi’s RentCafe platform. This incident was filed with the New Hampshire Attorney General's office on July 30, 2026. The matter is currently under investigation to determine the full scope.

The public filing does not specify the types of personal information that may have been exposed as a result of this incident. The official record broadly refers to an impact on personal data, with details expected to emerge as the investigation progresses.

While the investigation is ongoing, incidents like this can create risks for those whose personal information was involved. Unauthorized access to data can potentially lead to an increased risk of fraud or identity theft for affected individuals.

To help protect yourself, it is widely recommended to regularly review your financial account statements and explanations of benefits for any suspicious activity. You may also consider obtaining copies of your credit reports from the three major credit bureaus and looking for accounts or transactions you do not recognize.

Additionally, placing a fraud alert on your credit files can make it harder for identity thieves to open new accounts in your name. For greater protection, a security freeze can restrict access to your credit report, though this may require temporary unfreezing when applying for new credit.
