If your tenant has complained to the city...

If your tenant has complained to the city and you were then cited with building code violations, do not retaliate against the tenant.  No action for eviction, increase of rent, etc should be threatened or instituted against the complaining tenant.  If you do retaliate, you could end up owing money to the tenant under the Chicago Residential Landlord Tenant Ordinance.

Miller Bammi LLC can help you with your building code violations.  We can be reached via email at admin@millerbammi.com or via phone at 312-238-9298.
