Diane G. Yes after I deducted the last months rent that was not paid, and damages(2650). 3800 left about. She is suing for 27k! Based on Chicago law, I did not pay interest of 250 dollars. And I returned her deposit from an account other then were I held the money.

@ED b

The rent was 3550 but the deposit was 10000. The tenant did pay last month rent because the “check was lost in the mail” so I had to deduct that from the security deposit.

@Peter S.

Thanks, I have been looking for someone to help Landlords, hard to find!

Ultimately it’s my fault

Kimberly H. My assumption is yes she wanted her commission and she didn’t care.... She missed all the damages at checkout too

Kimberly H. Never had a clue!

Kimberly H. The rent was 3550, the tenants credit score was very low and recently claimed foreclosure. I was hesitant with this tenant, but my realtor felt she would be great fit 😢

@Thomas S.

Thanks....Never realized how bad chicago tenants law was....

@Franklin Romine

I think I will be selling this rental, and rethink being a landlord again
