@Michael Noto Illinois requires a 5 Day Notice for failure to pay rent. As mentioned, reiterate that the rent is due and that the hold is simply on evictions - not rent.

@Francis Bureros Our firm represents many Illinois landlords. Ensure your lease is top-notch, screen your tenants and you’ll be - to the greatest extent possible - covered.

@Armand Soto. The risk seems minimal as the offense is largely unrelated to his ability as a tenant.

@Scott Trench. I’ll echo Scott’s remarks...

@Kraig Krueger As said, loan documents differ - but odds are the transfer violated. Not sure that source of payment would flag bank, so long as paid...

@David Lopez. Keep the professional, not worth the risk.

@Pete Harper - Great way to handle it and the attorney is giving you a great deal!

@Ellie Narie - (1) Ensure this is in future leases and (2) try to get their written consent to amend the current lease.

@Robert Paquette. On occasion, we have. If you do, ensure that your lease contains language disclaiming warranties and fitness for a particular purpose for the items.

@Antea Alexander If this violates your lease and you are aware of the breach yet fail to enforce, there’s a chance you’ll be found to have waived the right to enforce this provision. Absolutely mention it.
