Landlords, in the City of Chicago if you need to access to your property it's important to follow the rules set forth in the Residential Landlord Tenant Ordinance (RLTO). Under the ordinance, a landlord must provide a two day notice by mail, telephone, written notice or by other means designed in good faith. In return, the tenant shall permit reasonable access to the landlord.
A general notice to all tenants should be given if repair work on common areas or other units may require such access. In an emergency or when repairs elsewhere unexpectedly require access, the landlord may enter the property immediately. Be advised that you must prove notice within two days after entry.
