Ruin my life???? Seriously? by Juan (MS) on December 28, 2012 @21:14

Here's what's driving me really nuts about you guys. You keep telling me that if I stay and get evicted, that its going to ruin my life, can't get a job, can't find another house to rent, etc., etc., etc., oh and my entire world will end and I may as well shoot myself at that point.

SERIOUSLY????? Wow. Many landlord/ladies don't even check credit, and I doubt that in MS, that an eviction even goes on your credit report. And besides, I am going to PAY THE RENT for the time I am here!!! Every penny of it! So how could that POSSIBLY "follow me around" everywhere and make life hell???

Evictions go on your background check which stays with you for the length of your life. Any lawsuit does. Anyone who is renting out anything decent or giving you any kind of money or financing is going to check your credit report and possibly your background information. Employers check BOTH...even a fast food joint. So when an employer checks and sees that you have been recently sued, lost the case and then had the police involved to remove you, they sure will think twice about hiring you over someone else who doesn't have that recent history.
