Many judgments are "renewable". You should consult the laws of your state of residency. Many judgments such as liens against real property are valid for 20+ years.

What is the difference between an agreed judgment and default judgment and will both have equal impact on credit ratings?
There's no difference in how the judgment is entered on a credit report.

A default judgment indicates the debtor(s) did not appear in court thereby forfeiting the right to defend the suit, resulting in a default judgment being entered in favor of the plaintiff. The execution procedure of either type judgment is also the same.
