Howard Dvorkin, CPA, chairman of Debt.com explains, “If you get evicted, your credit score won’t take a direct hit, but the glancing blow will still sink you.” That’s because evictions go into public records, Dvoskin explains. “Many landlords now do background checks on their potential tenants,” he says. “Good luck getting that affordable lease if your new landlord finds that eviction judgment.”
