I am pretty sure it doesn't unless I don't pay the rent and they need to collect something from me, but my mom is trying to give me some support on getting this apartment, and she does not want my stepdad to know about it. She is freaked out that it will show up on their credit report, so, I just wanted to run it by you guys and see if I really am correct on this issue.

You are incorrect. The fact that you are paying a lease agreement MAY (or may not) show up on your credit report, whether paid timely or not. If the particular landlord with whom you are dealing makes a regular practice of reporting the paying habits of all tenants to a credit reporting bureau, that will show up on your report.
If your mother co-signs as a responsible party on the lease, that may as well show up on her credit report.

Probably not if it's a small company. Default and It may appear no matter who they are. Ask up front to the leasing company. Tell them your problem. Maybe they can offer you an answer. Tell you step to calm down.
