Noise and 10 Day Notice in Chicago - How to enforce?
Hi there,
The two flat property is located in Chicago. I am using the 2017 Chicago Residential Lease.
Rules and Regulations
#9 - No noise or sound is permitted which dist rubes the other occupants from quite enjoyment of their apartment tor common areas of the property.
Here is my issue:
1st floor is complaining of noise from second floor. I purchased rugs and runners, but it it's still a concern. The 1st floor could be great long term tenants.
I will talk to the second floor tenants, but in the event this doesn't fix it. Do I need a police report (from first floor tenants) to enforce a 10 day notice as evidence? The second floor are creating a little trouble, and I wouldn't mind canceling their lease before the winter starts.
My question is, how do you prove the above? Do I need the first floor to file a police report or will an email be sufficient evidence?
Thanks for any tips,
Frank
