The website 51west.properties also scores low on scam advisor ("owner is using a service to hide their identity, high number of suspicious websites on the server, registrar has a high % of spammers and fraud sites, website is (very) young, website appears to be hosted by a company with a bad reputation", all according to https://www.scamadviser.com/check-website/51west.properties...)Trust your instincts. 

We received this letter from Toledo LMHA Lucas County's Section 8 administrator.I don't know if they had a data breach and a bunch of landlord and client personal information was stolen or if they lost their server and backups.

Even if summons is served at the address noone is there to sign it or receive it when a server tries to serve it. how does it work if server cant reach the defendant.

Those places are more likely not to be on some of the servers that have been mentioned.

If you end up serving them on the eviction, offer a bonus to the server to get it done in 24 hrs so it gets done pronto--best of luck

Remedy after termination.If the rental agreement is terminated, the landlord may have a claim for possession and for rent and a separate claim for actual damages for breach of the rental agreement, reasonable attorney fees as provided in § 55.1-1245, and the cost of service of any notice under § 55.1-1245 or 55.1-1415 or process by a sheriff or private process server, which cost shall not exceed the amount authorized by § 55.1-1247, and such claims may be enforced, without limitation, by initiating an action for unlawful entry or detainer.

Also, if anyone on the forum has recommendations for a good Chicago eviction attorney and process server for a 5 day notice that would be great also.I just wanted to prepare in case of need to escalateThanks

Very interesting thanks for sharing, how does this kind of thing differ form the chip manufacturing and server farms we are seeing in the midwest also? 

@Tom Server The rent is the rent.

I use a couple of Lorex systems as well as some Lorex cameras with a Blue Iris server.
