Chicago landlord protection if tenant needa to sublet
Hi!
I have a tenant in Chicago who has to move for a job and by law, I have to let him sublet. Would love any advice to ensure I protect myself.
1. Screening tenants: he needs to ask for recent paystubs, pull credit, ask for 2 references...am I missing anything?
2. What service do folks use to check credit?
3. Do you then ask them both to sign a subleasing agreement?
Any advice on someone who has had to deal with this would be much appreciated!
