This notice is for tenants in the City of Chicago who seek to withhold rent due to poor conditions at their rental unit. The notice allows tenants to withhold an amount that “reasonably reflects the reduced value of the premises due to the material noncompliance” if the landlord does not cure the violations within 14 days of receipt of the notice. To use this letter, your rental unit must be governed by the Chicago Residential Landlords and Tenants Ordinance (CRLTO). Buildings that are owner-occupied and have 6 or fewer units are excluded by the CRLTO (i.e., you live in a three flat and your landlord lives on the top floor).
