How do evictions show up on credit reports?

Does an eviction show up on your credit reports? The eviction itself won't show up on your credit reports. However, a landlord may choose to seek payment by selling your debt to a collection agency.

How long before eviction shows on credit report?

An eviction typically registers on reports within 30 days of a court judgment being entered against you to leave the dwelling, but it may take up to 60 days. The landlord doesn't have to report the judgment. Credit bureaus search for the information and update their databases from public records.
