Cook county landlords stop the crazy new tenant landlord law!!!

[Kimberly H.]

COOK COUNTY LANDLORDS! Something worse than the Chicago RTLO is being voted on soon that would apply to ALL of Cook County...it adopts all the requirements of Chicago’s RLTO AND the following:

a) Limits late fees to $10/month (for only $10 a month, a tenant can withhold his rent until the last day of the month) and

b) Eliminates move-in fees, which is what Chicago landlords started using to protect against the huge liability the RLTO created with security deposits. In other words, accept security deposits and risk being subjected to class actions for frivolous missteps, or simply trust that all tenants will opt to leave apartments fully cleaned with no damages and rent fully paid.

I've heard for address you need to give a Cook County address, so if you don't live in Cook county, provide the address of your rental in Cook county.
