Subleases

Did you know that according to the City of Chicago Residential Landlord and Tenant Ordinance a landlord must accept a reasonable subtenant offer by a tenant without charging an additional fee?

If a tenant moves prior to the end of the rental agreement, the landlord must make a good faith effort to find a new tenant at a fair rent. And, if the landlord is unsuccessful in re-renting the unit, the tenant remains liable for the rent under the rental agreement as well as the landlord's cost for advertising.

Bradford Miller Law is here to help landlords with legal matters they may encounter regarding their tenants including resolving any lease and/or sublease issues. We have been helping landlords for several years regarding many issues that landlords come across. Give us a call and we will be happy to assist you.
