Illinois Residential Lease Agreement

Illinois has no statewide deposit cap and a 45-day return statute. Chicago’s Residential Landlord and Tenant Ordinance stacks a 1.5× cap and extra notices on top. This generator builds a fixed-term residential lease around Illinois deposit, notice, and habitability rules.

• No statewide deposit cap. Unused funds are generally due in 45 days (765 ILCS 710/1).
• Interest may be due if you have 25 or more units (765 ILCS 715).
• 30 days’ written notice is the usual month-to-month period (735 ILCS 5/9-207).
