Renting Non-Conforming Garden Units in Chicago
Asking for a friend: Has a non-conforming basement, zoning really. 2 exits, 3 br, nice apartment. Can she post it on zillow market place? Where do people post "illegal" basements? It obvisouly wouldn't fly with section 8? Any advice and/or experience appreciated?

@Mario Morales we would definitely use Zillow for something like this. You have a lot of info on this page, but we have listed units like this before. It doesn't sound like you actually have an illegal unit here.... you have a two unit with a garden. Super common in Chicago.
