"How long do you have till an eviction is off of your credit?" i am looking for an apartment but i have an eviction that's about 9 years old. the question on the aplication is have i ever been evicted? do i say yes or no? how do i find out if its still there?
What record? The court's records are permanent.Added: And so is your credit history.
That depends on what state you are in. Some have them online, but the courthouse where the case was filed would surely have them.
If you believe the eviction was retaliatory, then you must state that as an affirmative defense in your answer to the landlord's complaint for eviction. Since the laws can get quite complicated, I recommend you check with a tenant's rights group in your area for an attorney referral or look in the phone book for attorneys who give "free consultations."
An eviction can negatively impact your credit score if it results in unpaid debts being sent to collections. This can stay on your credit report for up to seven years. It's important to try to resolve any outstanding debts related to the eviction to minimize the impact on your credit score.
in a commercial eviction does the landlord need to apply to a court for an eviction notice?
warrantty against eviction
need free eviction form
YES. This will show up on your credit report as "Landlord/Tenant history". This will stay there for 7-10 years!
In most places, landlords are not allowed to turn off a tenant's electricity as a form of eviction or punishment. This would be considered an illegal eviction tactic, and tenants have rights to access essential utilities. Landlords should follow legal eviction procedures if there are issues with a tenant.
The easiest thing to do is to stay with a friend or family for a while. You could also find a cheap hotel temporarily or keep searching for a new place to rent.
Most courts can only allow a tenant to stay if the tenant has the entire arrearage. Some courts won't even do that.
