That’s a great question!! I saw a post on Facebook where a woman had an eviction on her record from like 17 years ago and she is living in her car in Springfield even though she has good income AND credit. I really really hope she found a place. Luckily a broken lease is easier to deal with but no, it doesn’t disappear. I don’t know why it doesn’t and I don’t know how to make it go away but it is on the record probably forever. I was always told that stuff falls off but that isn’t what has happened in my case and for others that I’ve heard of.
