Hello,

Looking to see if anyone has a template on sending a notice to tenant to vacate the property in 60 days. Currently tenant is MTM lease in Chicago and has resided in the property less than 3 years.

If no template exist, what information is good to add on the notice?

I’ve seen a lot of Illinois templates but looking for chicago specific.

Thanks

@Mark Ainley I don’t, but will be finding out who owns the building since it was bought recently but problem has persisted for the last 2 years (I use to live and house hack so experienced it first hand)

@Mark Ainley

This is great! Thanks Mark, side note: love the podcast!

City of Chicago sent a violation notice for garbage overflowing…

As a landlord and former resident of the property, I know the tenants don’t necessarily are responsible for this. Building next to mine always has tenants dumping trash around the garbage cans and not inside.

What can I do here? Should I get a lawyer and fight this thing or is it not worth it? Also, as precaution and not letting this happen again, what do you all recommend? Cameras (need a good contact on this)

Thank you!

Hello,

I've recently moved to Austin, Texas and looking to possibly purchase SFH. I was wondering what neighborhoods are considered to be "next" few to appreciate.

I think Leander, Tx and Georgetown, Tx still have room to grow within next 5 years?

I want to keep the price of single family home around 500k.

Thanks for all the input.

Chicago Illinois is the location of rental

Tenant lease is expiring on may 31st. It’s family with husband/wife and a brother in law. They split rent. I wanted to ask them if they want to continue to stay month to month or leave at the end of lease term. The tenant I’m in contact with has been ignoring my calls and saying he’s busy and told me to call his brother in law. I got in touch with the brother in law who say he wants to stay. I told him I’m willing to keep the rent same as long as they abide by few small things I ask for. Such as if they are going to be a day or 2 late on rent, they need to notify me. They pay on time except the last 2 times I had to ask for rent and no response from the tenant. He just ended up paying a day or two late. The brother in law mentioned he pays the other guy his share prior to end of the month.

I’m asking for advice on how to move forward. I asked the other guy(husband) to contact me but he hasn’t. I have to know before end of the month or send a letter for vacating the property after lease is up.

What should I do in this case? Send letter just in case and wait for the other guy to call me?

I have a tenant who’s lease is going expire on May 31st. They are a family of husband , wife and brother in law. I wanted to renew or keep them month to month but needed to clarify few points to them for harmony of the relationship. I tried calling the guy and he keeps avoiding me. I called his brother in law who also lives with him (they split rent). He wants to stay there and I clarified my points on paying rent on time (they have been late by a day or two in the past 2-3 months) or notify me if they re going to be late.

He mentioned he has paid his half to the other guy before last day of the month every month. So I tell him to talk to the other guy and let me know what his plans are (whether he’s also interested in staying) and to call me back. No call back yet. 2 days since. I have called him couple of times in the past few weeks but he seems to be avoiding me. I just want to clarify to him that communication needs to be fixed here and I won’t be raising rents if they want to stay. No call backs.

Should I leave a letter in their mailbox or their door that I will be terminating the lease at the end of term as precaution measure anyways? Or I guess what’s my best next step here?
