Want to learn more about how eviction reports pulled from TransUnion work? Check out our summary below!

  • Only eviction cases that resulted in a final action will return.

  • Eviction records older than 7 years cannot be reported or used in screening decisions. As a result, TURSS will not return any eviction record that is more than 7 years old.

  • Massachusetts: As of May 2025, the Massachusetts Affordable Homes Act went into effect allowing tenants to petition courts to seal eviction records.

    • Once sealed, those records should be removed from consumer and tenant screening reports because consumer reporting agencies must stop reporting sealed records.

As of 8/15/2025, due to changes in state law, eviction records coverage may vary and some states are not available due to jurisdictional limits, and those listed are currently identified as states where eviction records are not available to return
